ESA Re-Assessment was created by MW
My ESA re-assessment medical was cancelled 5 times before finally going ahead in November 2017. It is now 14 weeks later and I still have not received a notice of the outcome, anyone else waited this long? I am reluctant to contact DWP as I fear they will suspend payments until they sort it out. I must add that my payments have remained the same and I continue to receive them on time. Any advice greatly appreciated.

The only way to find out what is going on is for you to contact the DWP, they won't suspend your payments for doing this,

Hi MW, my reassesment for ESA took place in October 2017, and only got my award a couple of days ago. And I got put in the Support Group, as I had hoped I would, so take heart, no news CAN be good news

Hi
I'm also in a similar situation. My f2f was cancelled a number of times ( Once at their reception desk ) and finally took place in January. My form was returned in early August so it's been 8 months of worry so far. I have a long term illness & been in the support group for a number of years after transferring from incapacity and really don't know if no news is good news or not.................
It helps to know that I'm not alone awaiting the daily postman visit !
Good luck.

Hi Buddie
I too have long term illness and have been in support group for past 2 years, it is a very worrying situation to be in and I hope the wait will not be too much longer for either of us, also, that we get the correct award.
Best of Luck
