ESA Renewal Assessment

Hi, Please could you tell me what is happening with the ESA reassessments now, I am in the support group contribution based, and was due to be reassessed two years ago but, was told that it would be Feb 2018 before I am recalled,
I have have transferred over from DLA and now on PIP since before xmas and was awarded enhanced on both parts
Is there a backlog again for ESA reassessments, as I was expecting to have received the brown envelope by now.
I know the two benefits are separate things but was wondering if the PIP outcome could have possibly made any difference to the ESA and that’s why I haven’t heard anything yet.
Thank you for you help.

I was in the same position as you Sue , very similar . I spoke to the dwp two weeks ago when I got th me anual updating letter . I was told my claim wasn’t due to be reassessed until September ( original it should have been September 17 but was extended ) . On Monday I didn’t receive my usual payment , I rang up and was told there had been an error on the system and they had to manually put my claim back into the system . They issued a same day payment on Monday for me . Low and behold I got the post today with an esa50 ... so much for September ! Currently in the process of filling it in whilst recovering from surgery
