ESA Support Group Descriptors - Which one? was created by Steve Blue
Hi all -

It's that time again. My brother has received another ESA50 questionnaire.

My brother has a lot of trouble with anxiety / depression / and change.

Do you have a link to the Support Group descriptors, please? We need to make sure that this time around his form is completed correctly. He made it into the Support eventually previously, but only months after further stress, WRAG missed meetings and added sanctions.

Any help or advice is appreciated.

Kind regards -
Steve.

Hello BlueBear

I can guide you to the appropriate area in the ESA guide;

Go to ESA claims in the members only guides; - look at claims on mental health grounds. Download the guide, look at P 17 -21

This gives 3 ways to get into the support group; read through these and decide which descriptor is most appropriate to your brother and go from there. It should enable you to give all the information you need to support his claim. You've obviously had previous experience of filling the forms in, this should give you the extra edge to hopefully make your claim stick.

Good :) luck

Thank you for your reply, shelam.

I've tried to find the ESA claims within the members only guides, but am uncertain I'm looking at the correct page. Do you have a link to the information I need or more of description of where it is and I'll try again? I might just be having a bad day - apologies.

Kind regards -
