Hi there. I yesterday started permitted work whilst on ESA. I will be signing off on the 13th of March which is also my ESA payday. I would like to know if after I have signed off on the 13th wether or not I will still be due another payment????

    ESA is usually paid fortnightly in arrears.
    On the 13th, you will be paid for Feb 28-13th of march.

    Why are you ending your ESA claim because of permitted work, usually your claim will stay open, also if you are starting it this week, then why are you closing your claim from the 13th March?

    How many hours will you be doing, and how much will you earn?

    You can do permitted work and still claim ESA. There are certain hours you can do and receive pay before it affects it.
