Hi there

I've been awarded PIP enhanced mobility and standard DL. Considering many of the questions are similar especially regarding mobility, I was just wondering if being entitled to PIP would qualify me for ESA without having to go through the ordeal of an ESA assessment? I realise the answer will probably be 'no', but just wanted to ask.

Thank you

Hi vicki_s

Unfortunately, despite the similarities, the two benefits are looking at different things, and at the moment, the majority of people who claim both benefits find themselves facing two assessments. You could find yourself lucky, but it's not something you can guarantee.
