Hi everyone

I am very confused about the migration from ESA to UC and looking for some help please.

I am on Contributions Based ESA in the Support Group and have been for 15 years.

Will i be asked to transfer to UC please.

I reach state pension age April 2026.

Best Wishes

SWEETHEART

Hi newcastle1949,

The simple answer to your question is no you won't be asked to transfer to UC if the only Benefit you receive is Contributions Based ESA.

Hi David

Thanks so much for your reply, the only other benefit i receive is PIP for an ongoing period (i think that is what it is called!!)

Hi newcastle1949,

Just thought I would let you know that PIP is not affected by UC Migration.
