WCA interviews are being sent out to those on high rate DLA. I thought this would not happen until 2015. Does anyone know if that date has been changed or are forms being sent out in error?

Hi ka,
The WCA, Works Capability Assessment, has nothing to do with DLA. (or PIP)
It is to do with ESA, Employment and Support Allowance.
If you are also currently in receipt of Incapacity Benefit (IB), SDA or Income Support (IS) on the grounds of incapacity, then all of these benefit recipients are being transferred over to ESA from now until Spring 2014.
If you have received a letter regarding this, stating that, "The benefit that you are getting is changing" then your migration to ESA has begun.
Being in receipt of DLA does not exempt you from this.
