Yes, if your income is too high for IB ESA that is correct.

That depends on your circumstances, but if you are still expecting a £1600 pension you will not qualify for further help!

It depends on your circumstances - DLA rate, eligibility to CA, allowable mortgage amount etc.

However much you get at the moment would be a good indicator.

The amount you receive at the moment is roughly the amount you would be eligible for on IB ESA. If you receive this amount from another source, you will not be eligible for IB ESA.
