can anyone give me some advice,I had a f2f 3 years ago and was put in support group about 2 years ago without needing another f2f,I have just received my esa 50 form to fill in I,m terrified at having the f2f again,do you always get called to a f2f or are there occasions where they will go off the information you send them if you give them plenty of insight into your illness
I'm afraid it's impossible to say whether a face to face will be required, the decision will be primarily dependant on the information supplied in and with your ESA50, if they have sufficient information then they should do it on paper, if not then they will need to see you.
Although there have been no changes to the ESA Descriptors since early 2013, the DWP guidance issued to assessors have been updated so you need to use the latest guides.
