How big is the backlog?

Hi J,

I will merge your ESA query in this post with your other ESA topic.

Please keep all future ESA related queries to this topic for continuity.

As you may know, ESA reassessments for current ESA recipients were being deferred to a later date due to the back log from January 2014.

However, from the beginning of December 2015, ESA reassessment have restarted and we have heard from many members since then who have received their ESA50 for reassessment.

As far as we are aware, these reassessments are progressing at a relatively steady rate.

Other than you ringing ESA to ask what the recommended date for your next reassessment is, we have no way of knowing when you will be reassessed.

THE ESA PHONE NUMBER DWP : 0345 608 8545 (Open 8AM-6PM. Mon-Fri.)
