Hi 58s,

In all areas of the U.K. bar 2 small pilot areas, as you are transferring to ESA from SDA/IS and are currently in receipt of DLA you do not meet The Gateway Conditions for a person who can claim Universal Credit. (UC)

The letter may well be a generic one and may not be pertaining to you personally !!

The WCA will still be carried out in the same manner and you can read what to expect in our ESA Claims Guides 2nd and 3rd links down : This Page

You should be aware that how you manage the return trip to/from the Assessment Centre will be taken into account as part of the actual assessment.

You may be observed on approaching, leaving and whilst inside the centre.

Assumptions may be made by the assessor with regards to the above.

These assumptions could result in the assessor writing comments/recommendations within the ESA85 medical report which they compile and send to The DWP.

Good luck and please let us know how you get on !!

Hi all just had my early 9am f to f appointment, still waited 20mins, she was pleasant and helpful…I was a bit miffed as I was only in for 25mins total? Don’t know if this is good or bad?? Anyhow just have to wait for the brownie….

Hi all Mods A Q please, My first IB to ESA appointment was cancelled in Oct15 on arrival, and said would make new appointment for a 9am in about six weeks ?, anyhow yes I received a 9am App / about 12 days ago arrived on time, and told I should hear a decision in about 4 weeks.

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
