Just migrated to UC in November, due a review already?? already

Hi

I migrated from ESA & tax credits to UC in November 2024. I was in the work related group of ESA, and so am classed as having limited capability for work, for UC.

I have just received a journal entry saying I am due a review on my work capability. I've only been on UC 3-4 months, is this normal?

I had been on ESA for around 7 years, and haven't needed to contact my GP as my mental health has been stable. Therefore I am going to have no recent medical evidence to provide them with. My anxiety is already worse just at the thought of this, as I suspect they are going to find me "fit for work"

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, I thought I had replied to you but my message isn't appearing.
Thanks for replying.

The only "to do" I have is "take part in a work focused interview by phone " in May.

I received the following message in my journal;

"You are due a review on your work capability. Please confirm the following:
Your GP's name -
Their health centre name -
Full address of health centre, include postcode and tele number -
Do you give consent if we need to contact them?

Please reply as soon as you can.
Thank you
WCA team"

I replied with GP info & asked why I was due a review already, as I only migrated to UC in November 2024.

I received the following reply;

"Your previous referral was with ESA, and is now due for referral.
Thanks"

Are they not usually sending UC50 forms anymore when they re-assess LCW/ LCWRA?

Are they now just asking for GP details?
(It sounds like CR20 hasn’t been sent a UC50 health form to complete.)

I wonder if it might be worth you speaking to your GP CR20 to update him/her on how your anxiety is affecting you. Then your GP would have this info when he/she is contacted.
