My concerns are if I receive a decision say in April and it was for wrag (work group) would I be classed as a new claimant under the new rulings (WRAG = JSA PAYMENT?? Any help thanks


It doesn't matter as the changes you are referring to do not come into effect until April 2017 :)

Well I can see now why reassessments are called one YEAR before there end date, as I submitted my esa50 form ib to esa on the first week of June 2015, and still no decision!...I may have to wait another year….

Hi 58u,

It is PIP fixed term awards that are reviewed 12 months before the end date, not ESA !!

ESA Assessments/Reassessments are generally done and dusted within 2-3 months of you receiving the ESA50 !

You will continue to receive your current level of benefit until a decision is made !
