Hi I recently filled in a pip questionnaire and now I have had to sign up for ESA and have been sent a work capability form to fill out. Do the PIP and ESA work together to look at the forms I will submit?
These will be separate assessments, although there are some areas of overlap between the ESA and PIP criteria the actual Descriptors are still different.

Hi Julesscouse, For my recent PIP review they have listed evidence used and the esa assessment report and form are listed as being used. So yes it is possible that they are cross referencing these benefits more now. So take care when filling out, as persived differences in evidence may be picked up on by DWP and it's assessors.
