ESA 85A was created by Jenga
At what point after an ESA decision is made is it too late to ask for a copy of the ESA 85A? IE how long do they keep them for? Thanks.

I would expect them to keep them for at least 13 months, DWP Data Retention Policy refers to a 14 month period although we know of members who have been able to retrieve data far older than this.

If it has been a couple of months or less then you should be able to just phone the DWP and ask for a copy, if longer then you may need to use a Subject Access Request (SAR).
