Reviewing your benefits and circumstance was created by memol
Today received interview appointment for 'Reviewing benefits and circumstances' and asked to provide bank and building society statements, details of savings and investments, etc. I am in the Support Group due to physical ill health and on income related ESA. Nothing is changed in regard to my savings, or income. I did permitted work in October and November 2018 which I informed Dept of Work and Pensions about and was within the hours and pay level. I stopped work as it was causing my health to deteriorate. The recent change is difference is I applied for PIP and had a medical assessment 1 week ago. Has anyone found that applying for PIP has caused them to be interviewed about their ESA? Why do they ask people to have a 'review of benefits and circumstances"?

The claimants for these appointments are often selected at random, I doubt it is connected to your making a claim for PIP but it could be the result of your doing the PW.

There should be a number for you to contact the JC+ advisor for more information. Some members have reported that phoning the DWP has allowed the meeting to be done over the phone.
