Has anyone attended a Work Focused Interview? My husband is the main Esa claimant and it is a joint claim with myself. He also receives lower rate care dla and higher rate mobility. I have numerous health problems which mean I cannot work and I take care of him. I have been asked to attend a work Focused Interview on Tuesday and just wondering what to expect/take with me, if anything.

It's quite normal for the partner of an ESA claimant to be asked to attend a WFI. They will ask you if there is anything they can do to help you work or to increase your hours, they cannot require you to work or to carry out any other activity.
Most of these appointments last about 10 minutes and they won't ask you to attend for at least another couple of years or even longer.
