Now I don't know what to think

Hi
Asked for a list of reasons why put in wrag group, letter arrives the dr [phrase removed] he say I can walk up to 200 metres which I can't, he said do not take sufficient pain killers which is inconsistant with the level of disability reported by the client. I'm so down [phrase removed].

Thanks for reply Gordon ... Also I have a letter asking me to go for an ESA interview, do I have to attend this as I'm appealing .
Thanks
Lily

Yes, you are obliged to undertake WFIs but it might be possible for these to be done over the phone.



Do I have to attend WFIs while I appeal?

hi im in the same postion as you but dwp have not gave me or said anything to why they put me in the wrag group can i please ask how they replided to you was it the decsion letter that the information was in ? or did they speak to you over the telephone also did you havea medical ?

the wfi i have just been on one dont worry its nothing to worry about you see a nice gent or lady who ask you about your condtion and how it affects you in day to day life and recommend you see a disbility speacialist to help you get back in to employment unfotunalty i suffer from severe depression and declined that part , she then arranges another interview over the telephone in 8 weeks time good luck and all the best

Bates2n - the letter does not tell you how the DWP made their decision, you will need to ask for your ESA85 (if you had a medical) or ESA8a (if you did not have a medical) or a 'statement of reasons' from DWP
