Precisely, because the legislation (in the link you provided and highlighted in my previous post) supports the Jobcentre moving claimants to UC by managed migration at a time of their choosing and without having to give a reason why they are doing so. As long as they issue the correct migration notice and give at least one month's notice to claim UC, they can, as you say, do as they like (when they like).

I learn from my own research that it takes very little in order for the Dwp to close a claim & often hear that a sanction will action closure of current claim. My own circumstances regarding closure of JSA claim something I have never received notification that would inform me of this & was only brought to my attention via complaints resolution manager who I had approached with my concerns regarding the lenghly time that was taking the DM issuing MR notice in response to my MR request that was required or so it was said to be in a letter received on 23/11/17 for a failure to attend on 10/11/17 of which they were fully aware of as they had been notified  prior to the FTA  that I was subject to emergency admission to hospital where I remained as an inpatient of intensive care unit in critical condition. However what I'd like to put across is in the months thereafter I followed  process as set out in letter dated 17/11/17 that clearly stated ' that JSA would not be paid blah blah for FTA' followed by wot I should do if I disagreed with this decision & that's exactly wot I done submitted mr on time with necessary documents( hospital discharge letter) that was received with a signature on 29/11/17 at Dwp office. This was an unecessary task as it would be ignored left on the shelf in that Dwp had never the intention to look at the decision again & provide MR notice as I would find out sometime later my claim had been closed on 27/10/17.
