Hi, I've got my reassesment this Fri 19th. I hav sent a brief letter fr my doc with the esa forms. Doc asked 4 me 2 b reassesed at home or on paper. They haven't taken this into consideration. 2day my doc is writing a more detailed letter this time! If they stil don't take in2 consideration again, shld I contact dwp myself? My conditions are worse and wil only get worse. Also my friend has her assessment 2day. Dla to pip. She is on dla for life coz of a heart condition. Wil she b excempt from assements in future, and stay on pip 4 life? Would really like sum advice for both of us as we are worried sick wiv all the stress. Thanku.

Your GP needs to be unambiguous about your being unable to attend, so they need to avoid phrases such as "might have problems" or "could make worse".

I'm afraid nobody is exempted from further assessment under PIP, even an On-Going award which is as close as PIP gets to an indefinite award includes an intention to reassess.

Also FYI... Gordon is bang on regarding PIP award the best you can hope for is an On-Going award and it does have a ten year review to get this award is very low I have so many issues and FE to back it up tighter than a steel drum, I count this as I'm very lucky Mine is an On-Going award from October 2017 and states may be looked anytime after October 2027. With this award it's not a year early like with a 2,3,4,5 10 year awards.

As far as I've been told it's ten years minimum unless reporting changes.

I was formely known as (GoingOffMyHeadWithThisGovernment) Won PIP November 2017 ongoing award HR both. Now kept and got my ESA Support group but took a while.
