Hi I,
Welcome to Benefits and Work Please try not to post duplicate posts. there will always be a delay between you posting and it appearing on the forum, as all post are pre-checked and approved by Moderators.
You next step would be to make a claim for ESA using an ESA1 Form, this can be done online, here :
www.gov.uk/employment-support-allowance/how-to-claim The DWP will then inform you whether you are entitled to claim ESA, and if you are, you will enter a 13 week assessment phase.
You can read our :
" Understanding Employment and Support Allowance
Our 42 page introductory guide to ESA" On this page :
