ESA Re assessment. was created by kirsty3
I was awarded ESA ( support group) and successfuly trsansferred from I B without a medical after B&W help. It was supposed to be for 3 years but this is 9 months over. I am awaiting a brown envelope and getting nervous. Are there many delays with ESA Reassessment? What should I do...Ring them and ask or just wait? Thanks

There's no requirement for you to do anything, ESA is an indefinite award so you will continue to receive your current award until a new Decision is made on your claim.
You can ring the DWP for when you are likely to e-assessed, doing so should not trigger a re-assessment.

How can I find out when my re assessment is? My Claim for ESA ( transferred from IB ) I managed to get into the Support Group with B&W help for 3 years. It is now 4 years and no letter yet. I am feeling worried ....I am due to reach State Pension Age in 2 years and 9 months... Is there a number to call for reassessment information.
