Jay_P wrote: Close to completing questionnaire which is due back next week.
With my circumstances not changing from my f2f two years ago
Is it worthwhile photocopying pages from my ESA85 showing the reasons HCP recommended me for the support group and sending as supporting evidence?
Would it be accepted?would it be deemed credible evidence or would it come across as me trying to tell them there job?
Hi J_P,
There is nothing wrong with you using copy of the ESA85 from your previous assessment as evidence to highlight how and why you qualified for The SG "last time" !
However, you would have to make it clear that the reasons that placed you into The SG "last time" are still relevant, in that you still qualify for The SG currently.
Even though the member who I responded to earlier on in : This Post is currently in The WRAG, the same would apply to how you should approach your re-assessment, even though you are currently in The SG.

Thanks for your feedback.Yeah my circumstances have not changed so have highlighted that on questionnaire
Should I just send along extracts from previous ESA85 or just send the whole thing?

Hi J_P,
Ideally, you should send the whole report, although you could highlight important extracts.
I know it would be nice if you could just provide the "good bits" from a report, but you should be aware that if you are only going to provide extracts, they may well want to view the whole report.
This goes for any supporting evidence that you might provide !!
This is why you should always check any document thoroughly before presenting it as evidence to ensure that it is supportive, and that if their are any "bad bits" the "good bits" outweigh them !
Always send copies, and keep the original !!

Phew That's my questionnaire completed to the best of my ability,what a slog and find it humiliating having to go through this,however needs must
My Sunday will now consist of photocopying everything,enveloped up and in the post on Monday.
After that it's sit back and wait..I will report back once I,ve received my decision but meantime thanks to this site and those on it for the help and info
Regards envelope.Now I,m sure I,ve read the answer to this elsewhere so apologies for asking again...The info I am sending is too large for the paltry envelope they supply.I guess I can send everything along with the questionnaire in a different,appropriate sized envelope to the address on the one they intially supplied?

Hi J_P,
Yes, I am sure that you may have read information regarding :
ESA50 too big for the envelope
As it is in the post that I provided the link for earlier on in this topic : Here .

So, you can either stick/cellotape the pre-paid envelope provided to the front of a larger envelope/package (as long as you are happy that it is secure and will not come off) and see whether you can get the postage reduced.
Or, you can simply write the address that is on the pre-paid envelope onto your larger envelope/package and pay the full postage.

Good luck and please keep us updated !
