ESA advice. was created by musicaljem
Hello I am currently in the support group for ESA and was placed in the support group in June 2021, and then again in December 2021. I was due a review on the 31st December 2022, but then was told that it was moved to November 2023.
Would this be due to the backlog in assessments?
Thanks.

Hi thoughly

Welcome to the forum.

You might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explains where everything is; www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/guides-for-claimants/faq/forum

I like easy questions, the answer is yes, there is a massive backlog, if you click on the news tab there is an article about the backlog.

Hi Gary

Does the backlog apply to Contribution Based ESA, or is it mainly IR ESA moving over to UC please?

Kind regards
P.

Hello Gary,

Would you tell me where I can find that info about the backlog please? I searched the news and have looked elsewhere but can only find info on PIP delays.
