Received my ESA85A and unsure of what It means

Thanks for that information Linda.

So it seems that an ESA65 statement of reasons is only produced when a claimant is found fit for work, and it appears that a decision maker has decided that you have at least 15 points but doesn't know what for?

Your appeal papers should make interesting reading!

Hi Just me,
I too was put in WRAG without a medical.
I asked for reports and have been sent the following.
ESA72,this tells me what group i am in and that my next assessment will be up for review on 25/05/12.
ESA85a medical report form, this shows that i could be considred for work within 12 months, and that i have a significant level of disability.
It then goes on to say which descriptors i did not match, but no mention of how points were given,when i asked them to send me details of points they ssid none are given if you dont have a medical.
I have now requested a copy of ESA65 to se what that says.
Seems to me that they cannot cope and it's easier to put us in WRAG without a medical and hope we leave it at that.

Right....Is it just me or all our stories starting to sound the same. So should I ask for this ESA72 too then? Sounds like you'd have hard time appealing to be in the support group If you have absolutely no idea what they scored you.

Why am I not surprised to hear any of this.

Please see my reply in this thread HERE.

Do you think that you and indeed some other members fit neatly into the scenario as detailed in my post?

How long did it take from sending in your forms and evidence, to getting a reply?

interesting reading indeed Derek. The form from the DM I got is a LT54 [DMACR] any body else had this one?
