ESA assessment date was created by Heffy
Hi. I'm in the ESA support group and the guideline date for my reassessment when I last rung sometime back was mid Aug of this year. I know its only a guide but I haven't heard anything. I also know they are far behind with reassessments but I thought the forms would still be coming out on time. Dread the post each day but don't really want to ring, although I am sure you would say its the only way to find out anything. I suppose its very unlikely the date has been deferred. Thanks.

If they were going to reassess you then I would expect a new ESA50 in the next couple of weeks.

They are still deferring some reassessment so it is possible that this has happened to you.

I'm afraid the only to be certain is to contact the DWP, although you can contact Maximus to see if they been asked to look at your claim, bit of course they will only know if they have received the paperwork or not.

Just took all my courage to phone them and was told I am in the support group ESA until August 2019, which I believe means I have been deferred for 2 years although of course she didn't say that. She started waffling on about when did you have your last assessment and obviously a medical, I just said I cannot remember. Thanks B and W I just wanted to know as I could no longer bear the waiting for the post each day. Hoping it doesn't trigger off an assessment sooner by phoning, but I know they can always assess any time. My fear in waiting these last few weeks for the form to arrive when the date I had was Aug 2017 (until I just phoned) was that I could just be called by Maximus for a medical without filling in an ESA50. Would say to anyone have the courage to ring up and ask.
