ESA Assessment Cut Short was created by Rachel Black
I went for my esa assessment and it only lasted 20 minutes. The assessor said that he had all the information he needed (without any physical tests etc) I have a list of problems a mile long tbh but was only asked a few things. The last assessment I had was an hour long so am a bit worried now as to why this was so short? Does anyone have any ideas please?

I would the assessors words at face value, not every assessment has to be an hour or more, if they were happy with the contents of your ESA50, the evidence attached and your previous assessment results then they may have been happy to make a recommendation to the DWP based on what they saw on the day.

An ESA Decision should take about 2-4 weeks.
