DLA to pip 2mths now esa form was created by lild
Just gone through the dla to pip hassle, had decision on the same amount. I was told it should be more but not appealing as just glad it's over.

This morning I received the easy form, work capabilities assessment. I've really not good mental health wise, but again have to run the gauntlet. I'm 61 so would have been on pension (if rules hadn't been changed).
Sorry I'm just having a moan I'm really worn out and stressed.

That's alright :)

Make sure that you use the latest ESA Claim guides.

Sorry for mistakes and spelling in previous post.
It was supposed to say ESA form, which I think you will have worked out.

I was on DLA for life originally, pip is 4yrs.
I will read the ESA guides and see the difference with pip form.

Not as standard, we have seen maybe a half dozen occasions where it is likely that an ESA reassessment has been triggered by a PIP Decision and those have all been down to a failure to award.

PIP has been designed to be a harder benefit to award so this may account for the same award.
