Sorry Im confused re ESA support group..

Options
Hi all.

Can someone please explain something to me. I am in the ESA support group but does that mean I'm in income related or contribution ESA? I'm also in high rate DLA & low rate mobility indefinate, if that makes a difference I'm trying to fill out a new housing benefit form & I don't know what the answer is?

Can anyone advise please?

Thank you. :)

    Hello your entitlement statement should say if it's contribution or Income Related.
    Why pay full price when you may get it YS ;)
  • Oh and another clue will be the amount they pay you each week - You get what is called Disability income guarantee (EDP) paid automatically if on IR ESA Support group, but yes the award letter should say that it is income related or contributory on it somewhere as well.
