ESA assessment was created by charles
Hi my assessment was postponed as the health assessor said they had a report from my doctor and were looking into whether i needed to attend. Two days later i have had anew appointment. Should i look at this as negative ? What sort of things do they ask from the doctor?
I am really worried this might affect my pip.

You should be able to get a copy of the ESA113, the form sent to your GP by contacting your Surgery. They usually ask about the claimant being able to attend. It's also possible that they have not waited for your GP to respond and I am afraid it is also possible that your GP hasn't bothered to.

I would not worry about your PIP, we haven't seen a PIP award adversely affected by an ESA reassessment or vice versa.
