My ESA was due to be re-assessed at the beginning of June 2015. It wasn't and I haven't heard anything from them since then. But I am still receiving the money.
I was wondering if anyone knows (or can have a rough guess) as to how long the backlog is?
Or is there a possibility that I have been re-assessed and they haven't bothered to tell me???

Hi
There's no chance they reassessed without telling you.
Some people are being reassessed very early. Others have been left alone.
The DWP is a law unto itself :)

Hi mg,

As you may know, 2 year deferrals of ESA reassessment dates were occurring from Jan 2014.

However, since the beginning of December 2015, ESA reassessments have restarted.

We don't know "who" the restarting of reassessments will affect, but we have seen a definite small increase in members receiving their reassessment ESA50's recently.

As your recommended date for reassessment was June 2015, before reassessments restarted, your reassessment date may of well been deferred until June 2017.

The only way to find out is to ring ESA :

THE ESA PHONE NUMBER DWP : 0345 608 8545 (Open 8AM-6PM. Mon-Fri.)
