ESA Face to Face today was created by jaxw17
I i have been today for my face to face for my ESA claim I have been in the support group for some time.. He started off with the usual how did I get there etcI have cF and he listened to some of that and asked me questions. he then asked me about dumping syndrome and the effect that it has on my toilet habit which is enormous amount of effect. He spent quite a bit of time on this he spoke a little about my diabetes. He then said I am not going to ask you anymore. I don't need to know anything else I will write a report that will explain how debilitating your disabilities are. He gave me some advice to pass on to the diabetic consultant of things that may help and it was over.
i am assuming that points wise my continence problem gave me maximum points
If the DM decides not to take his advice where do i stand that the full assessment was not carried out.
He seemed very genuine and very concerned. I am a little paranoid though
I suppose I will have to wait and see but has anyone else any experience of them not going through everything. i did have a lot of information that I had sent in with my claim.
Thanks.
I

The DWP don't usually release the assessment report until after the Decision is made, but you can still ask for it now.

ESA Decisions are currently taking 2-4 weeks.

The DM is unlikely to see the shortening of the assessment as an issue, if you don't get the award that you are expecting then come back to the forum and we can provide further advice.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems
