Esa was created by Lin 56
Just been told I'm keeping my ESA Support Group (stressful ) but I've been told I'm might be able to get an extra allowance by filling out an ESA 3 form but they said I could also lose money but to take a chance and fill it out. I don't know what to do as the weeks of waiting for an answer re my ESA was so stressful I felt I was going mad.Can any one advise.? Many Thanks

I can't see how you would lose money as you remain entitled to the ESA(CB) that you are currently receiving and cannot be paid less than this.
