I have sent two letters both recorded delivery to my job centre in belfast for the ESA85a & the ESA113. I was transfereed from IB TO ESA WRAG withought a medical. I have heard nothing back & its been since January since I sent the 1st letter & March the second letter. I really wasnt to know when I'm likely to be reviwed again. How long does it take to get the info they hold on you?
You say you have sent your letters to your Job Centre, do you mean the Social Security Agency? I am not completely familiar with the set up of benefits in N. Ireland, but on the mainland, whilst part of the same agency, JC+ and the DWP perform different functions and your request needs to be dealt with by the latter.
Have you contacted the SSA to find out what is going on with your requests, they would normally respond to such a request in a couple of weeks?
You can make the request more formal by making a Subject Access Request, which requires a 40 day response. There is a guide in the Members area that explains how to do this.
