Hi all

I’m really really confused about current legacy ESA CB going over to new style ESA from 1/12/25

Can the team explain what will happen to the tens of thousands of us in this position
What will happen to our existing awards

Will we need a fit note for the transfer to NS RSA as we moving over from legacy ESA CB

This has really ramped up many anxieties including my own

Hi Jamine19

There was an article in the last B&W newsletter.

My understanding is that CB ESA claimants do not need to do anything, they will automatically be moved over to NS ESA. You do not need to provide a fit note.

For claimants in receipt of both IR ESA and CB ESA the procedures was different.
