Night time face to face assessment, please help

Hi,

Please can you help me?

I am really worrying about a face to face assessment that I am having to have for my ESA on Monday 23 July. They have sent me an 'arrangement' not an 'appointment' and it says...
An arrangement has been made for you to have an assessment in you own home on: Monday 23 July. They will arrive between 17:00 - 19:00.

Is it usual for them to do night time 'arrangements' ? I'm now also worrying that if they don't turn up and do what other people have been saying,... pretend to knock at your door and say no one was in, describe your house etc. The office will be closed by 7pm and I wont even be able to ring them.

Thank you for any help.

It is rare for Maximus to offer a home assessment so the first thing you should take away from the appointment is that they obviously accept that you would have significant problems attending at their offices.

We have not seen a report of a Maximus assessor failing to attend an assessment so I would hope that you will have nothing to be concerned about on the day.

The ESA Claim guides have sections on the assessment and the questions you are likely to be asked.

Best of luck.
