Starting work on ESA and UC

I receive ESA (LCWRA) and UC.  Started work yesterday on a salary of £36,970.  When will my UC and ESA  stop.  Will it be after I get my 1st wages.

    You need to tell ESA and UC should be after 6 months of nil awards.

    ESA will end from start date of employment. You need to tell ESA immediately.

    And UC will close after 6 nil montly award statements.
    The comments I post are personal opinion. Always refer to official information sources before relying on internet forums. If you have a problem with any organisation, enter into their official complaints process at the earliest opportunity, as sometimes complaints have to be started within a certain time frame.

    I echo the congrats and it's great to see that being on LCWRA doesn't stop a person getting a job if they are able to do it.
