Hi Folks,
Send in my ESA50 form in June (I think ), waiting for a date for a medical.
To my surprise a letter this morning has put me into the Support Group.
Just a couple of questions for the good people on this site,
Does this mean i will now be transfered to U.C ?
Does this mean im entitled to extra Benefits ?
Do i inform any one about this change ?
A big " THANK YOU " in advance for the answers

Well done.
If you claim HB and CTR then inform them.0 -
Great news. No you won't be transferred to UC unless a change of circumstances prompts a move across. You won't be asked to apply for UC until at least 2019 but could be much later.micky2phones wrote: »Hi Folks,

You will get extra ESA for being in the Support Group.. Income related ESA is £125.15 per week and you're also excluded from the benefit cap.0 -
