Can anyone advise. I completed my ESA50 and sent it off in March - they confirmed receipt on the 17th. I have rang several times as I haven't received any communication what so ever. Apparently it is 'before a panel' so I could be called for another medical. I followed the ESA guidelines given by 'Benefits and Work' and was happy with what I said but I am struggling with waiting for that brown envelope. Surely nearly 6 months is a long time to wait for an outcome. Is this a problem anyone else has experienced? Any advice welcomed.
In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ
My full name is showing, how can I stop it? There are still considerable delays in the ESA assessment process and I am afraid a six month wait is not unusual. Try contacting Maximus for an update on waiting times for your area.
