ESA REVIEW was created by TrevorR
I've been in the support group for several years due to schizophrenia and PTSD. I got a call this afternoon regarding an ESA review and I was offered a face to face or telephone review. I chose the telephone review. I haven't had one for about 4 years so I guess i was due one. Is there anything in particular I need to prepare for one of these telephone reviews? I have looked through the guide for ESA, will they be using this for the review? Thank you.

I've moved your post to its own topic, we ask members not to post their questions in other's topics as it can lead to the wrong advice being given or taken.

It is extremely unusual for an ESA assessment to be done over the phone so I can't really help you much with what they might ask but I would expect it to be about our conditions and limitations and how you meet the ESA criteria. Our ESA Claim guide has a list of questions that are normally asked at a face to face assessment, it would be worth your having a look at these.

Thank you Gordon, I think it may possibly be because I can have severe aggression issues which are unpredictable.

I received a letter today confirming the telephone interview and it is in fact a compliance call. I'm in the support group and I understand quite a few people in the SG get these.

Hi Trevor

Compliance calls are generally about finance and to see that you are receiving the right benefits.
