IB to ESA S Group Feb 2013 for 18 months.Due reassessment by Aug 2014.
Then introduction by DWP of 2 year gap period for reassesments.
Reassesment now due by Aug 2016.I am anticipating papers will arrive for me to complete April 2016.
March 2016 DWP Pension section have written to me setting out my state pension figures that will be payable to me from mid July 2016.I understand that once in receipt of S/P my ESA will cease.
Questions
Should I just complete paperwork when received ? Should I contact contractor assessment team for advice?Should I contact ESA Help desk for advice? Do you have the Tel number?
Many Thanks

There's no requirement for you to contact the ESA department unless you receive a new ESA50, which I would not expect to happen if you reach State Retirement Age in July of this year. Your current ESA award will remain in payment until a new Decision is made or until you reach SRA, they should contact nearer to July to let you know when your final payments will be.
