I know this has probably been talked about before but for certainty - A Polish client claims income based ESA from December 2013 with HB. His past is sketchy ie probably working on and off for 2 years. At this present time he is now too ill to look for or engage in work so can he claim income based ESA and retain his HB or can this go very wrong for him regards his RTR which also effects his HB. Any input would be appreciated.
