Esa-UC when moving home

Hello, I was possibly going to move from one local authority to another within the same county but I today found out that in doing so I would lose my ESA and force me to claim UC. I was also told I would lose money once on UC. I get £382 a fortnight on ESA, so god knows how much they pay on UC. Looks like I’ll be staying put. Any advice or info would help me. Thanks

Seems CAB didn’t know this
It was only confirmed today. Has been pending for some time but there was doubt about whether it would be implemented because government and MPs are a bit distracted!Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Some rules may be different in other parts of UK.0 -
Seems silly me starting a new thread. Same question... will I be transferred from IR ESA to U/C if I move region. I don't get SDP... just EDP. (also claiming PIP, have non EU partner - no public funds condition, own home). Presumably it doesn't trigger a re-assessment of disability?"Do not attribute to conspiracy what can adequately be explained by incompetence" - rogerblack0

You can re-assessed at anytime for ESA, so if this does happen then it will be just a coincidence.0
