modedit: I feel obliged to make you aware that Chris cannot be aware of all the issues associated with your claim. You should get advice from an appropriate advisor. Gordon
If you were to transfer to ESA now (with your DLA passport premiums for higher rate care in place) and be put in the support group you are likely to receive ESA of approx £170.00 per week.
If you are placed in the WRAG group this would be reduced to approx £165.00 per week.
Should you be re-assessed to medium DLA care rate then you would loose the enhanced disability rate of £14.05 per week.
I hope this helps and makes sense. I have taken the figures from the DWP published benefit rates for 2011.
