Thanks. Will applying for pip effect our esa claim? By this I mean could it potentially stir things up so we get put on to UC? We don!!!8217;t want this to happen as the last thing we need right now is 5 weeks without any money !0

Applying for PIP will not mean a move to Universal Credit.
If you are successful it would mean more money for you. It is not a means tested benefit - you could be a millionaire and still receive it.
It could affect your ESA claim but only in a good way - i.e it might mean you are awarded more money through disability premiums.0 -
Thanks for that. I!!!8217;m gonna look into it.
Can we both apply for it or can only 1 ?0 -
