These UC considerations are quite new to me, though I was once quoted verbally that I'll be ineligible for UC.
Which confuses me as there have been other reports, that when WTC's migration (disabled with MS) goes ahead, then there is the possibility that I and other disabled would not suffer any loss of existing benefits.That's not true for everyone because UC and WTC are 2 completely different benefits. Some will be better off and some will be worse off, as well as some not being entitled to UC at all.If you're claiming the disabled element of WTC then this doesn't exist in UC as such. For UC you will need a work capability assessment, which i believe you were given advice regarding this in the past.
