TOPIC: Straight into Support Group

Straight into Support Group 11 months 2 weeks ago #88459

I've just been migrated from IB to ESA with no medical, and went straight into the Support Group! :cheer:

I've written asking for form ESA85a to get more details, as the letter said I would receive payments up to 29th November.

I'm presuming that I'll get another form to fill in before the end of November? :S

Well done, thanks for letting us know about the decision! The November date comes up frequently, it seems to be something to do with DWP systems rather than an indication of when you will be reassessed - you should get an idea of that when you look at your ESA85a.

Hello,

Well done for getting into S/G.

Quick question for mods. Once in S/G and if you submit same evidence that got you into S/G in first place and also other info supporting you will not improve etc, how realistic is it that when you are up for renewal tou will be placed in S/G???

There's simply no way to know this. All you can do is present the best case you can.
