Hello there

As there was no medical there is no sign of the though process that led to the decision to put the sufferer onto the time limited WRAG

I believe pointing out that the person is not going to be cured or ready for work in a year is not sufficient grounds for appeal

Without knowledge of the decision, any thoughts on how to frame the appeal, or it is just restating the evidence from the ESA50 again and inviting the Tribunal to make the correct decision

Thanks

There will be a number of documents used in the making of the Decision, see

ESA medical – what forms to ask for?

Our ESA Appeal guide explains your options in filling out the GL24 Appeal guide

www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/help-for-claimants/esa

But in short, it should be sufficient at this time to simply refer the Decision Maker back to the ESA descriptors you believe you meet with a brief explanation of why. Once the appeal has been lodged you can send in a more detailed explanation of why you should be awarded the benefit.
