Do I qualify for Severe Disability Premium (SDP) transitional payment protection?
If you are in receipt of SDP as part of your award of income-based JSA, income-related ESA or income support and are moved to Universal Credit following a relevant change in your circumstances (natural migration) you will be considered for a transitional protection payment.
This transitional payment is intended to compensate for the loss of the SDP.
Who will not qualify?
You will not be entitled to a transitional protection payment if you are in receipt of legacy benefits and an SDP is not part of your award and you move to Universal Credit through a change in your circumstances (natural migration).
