I was assessed face to face in 2011 and was put into ESA support group. In 2013 I was assessed (paper based) and again was put in ESA support - where I have remained ever since. I've not heard from them since 2013 (not that i'm complaining). I was just wondering if my case is unusual compared with others on here or has anyone else been on it longer without further assessments? Or is there an possibility that I have been assessed since then but they didn't send me a form??? I know that between now and 2028 I will have to be assessed for UC, which I am absolutely dreading and would be catastrophic if I lost it.
You are the second member tonight who has ask the same question.
As you are receiving ESA and in the support group then ESA is an indefinite award with scheduled reassessment based on the Prognosis Date completed by the assessor in their report, so your existing ESA award continues in payment until a new Decision is made.
