We are moving from TC to UC. I claim support group contributions based ESA which I understand will stay the same and be taken off UC pound for pound
Can I still claim LCWRA element ? Which is 416.19 or do I only get the 156.11 because I have been on ESA since 2014?
TIA

The LCWRA element will be included in your maximum UC award.kazzyb123 said:We are moving from TC to UC. I claim support group contributions based ESA which I understand will stay the same and be taken off UC pound for pound

@Spoonie_Turtle you don’t sleep well either!
I’ve attached a photo from the gov website that shows the bit about ESA before 2017, I think I understand the rest of it now apart from this bit. Can you take a look for me please? tomorrow is fine obviously!

That screenshot you posted gives information for LCWRA and LCW. The £156.11 doesn't apply to you and only applies to those in WRAG/LCW. As spoonie advised, you'll be entitled to the LCWRA element (£416.19/month) from the start of your claim.2
