Can you explain where it needs more detailIf you are appealing because you failed the ESA medical and were found Fit for Work, then you are not required to attend WFIs while you wait for your Tribunal to be heard.

Hi LT,
The following applies if a claimant has not been awarded ESA at all, and has been assessed as "Fit for work". :
"If you are appealing because you failed the ESA medical and were found Fit for Work, then you are not required to attend WFIs while you wait for your Tribunal to be heard".
If a claimant has been put in to the WRAG of ESA, and is appealing that the he/she should actually be placed in the support group, then whilst appealing the claimant can still be compelled to take part in WFI's, but will not be sent forward to "The Works Programme" .
Hope this clarifies.

]sigh would not be at all surprised if I have.
