Hi,I was transferred fromIB to ESA in May 2011, and put in WRAG, with a prognosis of 12 months.
My reassessment date is due shortly, so i have just called ESA office to ask when i will receive a new form. They said that it should be sent shortly.
I also mentioned that it is now nearly 12 months since my transfer and that i have not been called to attend a WFI.
He sounded shocked to hear this,and explained that jobcentres are sent a list every week of who to contact to make appointments. He then ckecked my records to find that my name has not been included in thes lists.
He said that this is not good enough, but said that as my case is due for review it may be best to wait for this to be completed.
After being told this i contacted my MP to let her know that the system is failing.
She has also suggested that i wait for the retest, and to see the outcome.
She has however said that if the result of the test does not place me in the support group i should contact her and she will make an official complaint to the minister concerned,as they have failed to meet their contract to give support to me to help me back towards work.

If it is your aim to return to work, then this failure by the DWP is certainly something to complain about, but don't be surprised to get some comments from other members, who would love to have avoided these interviews :)

I am not looking to return to work, as i know i could not manage it.
I was just pointing out how the system is failing, and that if i had wanted help,( and no doubt there are some people who do want some help), it would have been a year waste.
