    Hi,

    No, you'll be invited to apply when the time comes and you'll have 1 month to do so, if you don't then your money will stop.

    Managed migration doesn't start until at least next year, much later than that if you're claiming severe disability premium because you're protected from claiming it until January 2021.

      You asked a question a couple of days ago about UC. When you do claim UC your ESA award will be honoured in UC. If you're in WRAG for ESA you'll be in LCW for UC, how much you'll receive will depend when your claim for ESA started. If Support Group it's LCWRA.
