Good Afternoon Mods,

You must have written permission to record the assessment, contact Maximus for this.

Good afternoon Mods and Moderators.
Once again i would like to say a huge thank you to the Mods for their patience and knowledge. The brown envelope arrived today. I had my F2F on 3rd June just over three weeks ago. I am so relieved to say that they have placed me in the support group once again. Its such a relief. Once again thank you so much Gordon, bro58, Mrs Hurtyback and shelam. Where would we be without you.

Good Evening Mods,
I have now received a copy of my ESA85 bu nowhere does it say how long the award is for. It says that I wont be fit for work in the longer term but no date. I remained in the support group but there are no points or mention of Exceptional circumstances or regulation 29 or 35 just that I meet the criteria for LCW and LCWRA. I have tried phoning but having been on hold for 3 hours I just wondered if there is anything else I can look for within the report to give me an idea. Many thanks.

ESA is an indefinite award with regular reassessment, so there will not be an award length on the ESA85, currently the longest time between assessments is three years for the SG and two for the WRAG.
The assessor should have indicated which Descriptors and/or regulations that you met, see the following post for the codes used.
