I filled in my Health Assesment form in mid January and heard nothing. A phone call confirmed it was received and to wait. Out of the blue thus morning I receive a telephone call asking me to attend tomorrow midday. Due to the complexity of my epilepsy, I cannot even remember what I put on my form. My DLA was a horrendous ordeal which fortunately I lost but won my appeal. Are they still anti epilepsy claims? Also any tips please. I’m shaking at the thought of going through it all again.
It sounds as if you were offered a short notice appointment.
For others reading this, you do not need to accept these, the Assessment Providers are required to give claimants seven days written notice of an appointment. However, once accepted it will be treated as a standard assessment.
Have a look at our ESA Claim guides there are sections covering the assessment and the questions you are likely to be asked.
