I think what has been said before it we don't know, but look at the excellent guides, down load the pdf esa50 questionnaire, stary thinking about it, and if you have professionals involved in your treatment ask if they would support you with a letter. If you have not seen a GP for a long time make an appointment look at the descriptors and write down what you have problems with and give them an update!
That way you are doing all you can. Esepcially now you only have 4 weeks to complete the questionnaire, gather evdience and send it back. Good luck all

yes - thank you - I have downloaded an ESA form and started to complete it ticking 'yes' or 'it varies' to almost every box so far... and I am nearly half way through...... (even though I've not been asked for it yet!) .... just getting ready ... :o)

I haven't had my IB reviewed since 2007 and I have not received anything to say I am being transferred to ESA. I have just received my DLA renwel and wondered if this might trigger an IB/ESA review? Should I contact the DWP about this or just keep quiet and wait and see?

Hi Phidgity,

I would wait. My husband had not been reviewed since he was awarded indefinate DLA 3 years ago, which i believe had something to do with IB assessments, cannot be 100% sure. However, he has now been placed into WRAG without medical and am appealing.
