    Ok thanks I have watched that and now I can see what it looks like.
    I have no problems doing anything online but I wanted to see if they ask if you are in the support group (LCWRA) for ESA and getting SDP so they would protect it during migration, I wonder if you know if they do?

    I don't think that's one of the questions they ask. Once you've submitted your claim you can add a message onto your journal and tell them that you're currently claim ESA in the Support and and it includes the SDP. (assuming you still qualify once you've claimed UC)

    If your a single person then your SDP transitional protection will be £132.12/month. This erodes over time so if other elements increase the TP decreases until such a time it erodes completely.

    What's the reason for claiming UC? Those that are in the Support Group for ESA with SDP included will be worse off when they claim UC even with the SDP TP included.

    I'm not doing it yet Poppy, I am waiting for the managed migration, I was just curious to see what it was like once you are in the UC claim area. I wonder why the SDP is so low it's not as much as we get now, nothing like it.
