Hi,
dwp told me months ago that my next assessment would be in September. On Saturday I received a questionnaire, months early, obviously . Any ideas why this has happened, as I say so!! early.? I have already filled it in, and returned it.

The DWP aim to have made a new Decision by the re-assessment date, as a consequence claimants should expect a new ESA50 to be issued 2-3 months before this date.

Thanks,
I thought the decision was made following the assessment?!

It is!

So for the DWP to make a new Decision in September, I would expect the DWP/ATOS to potentially schedule a medical for August and to issue an ESA50 in June, allowing 3-4 weeks between each activity for admin and delays in the system.

That was the end of May, only a little earlier than expected.

Finally got my letter last Sat (26th May) to say that I would be transferring to ESA from my additional pensions contributions ICB £113.32p per month. Still waiting for the telephone call, mind you they were 5 months late in sending the letter, I should have had a review in Jan 12! The fun will begin if they declare me fit for work as I get War Pensions UNSUPP. Really looking forward to what athey have to say.
Any one else in the same situation? Oh BTW I am 70% disabled for War Pensions.


My ESA50 arrived last Sat (9 Jun) having a quick glance through it does it seem easier than the last one I filled in, in 2006? They need it to be back to them by 9 Jul they won't get it before then, believe you me.
