Can I claim DLA without ESA was created by debbie51
Hi
I am currently appealing against being turned down for ESA after my medical. Do you know if I can put in for DLA even though I may not win my appeal for ESA.
Thank you

Yes you can, DLA and ESA are different benefits, although it may be worth your while requesting your ESA medical report to understand why you were rejected, in case it is used as evidence for your DLA claim, seeHi

There is nothing to stop you from putting in a claim for DLA, the eligibility for DLA is different to ESA. DLA is for help with personal care and mobility. Hope this helps
