ESA copy and paste from old claim form

Hello All,
I'm a long time reader but first time poster.

I used a pdf form form my last ESA claim, which I saved, apart from a few changes most of my symtoms and how they affect me have remained much the same.

Is it ok to copy and paste some of my answers from my old claim form on to the new.
Obviously If they have my old claim form in front of them they will know I have copied the answers, is that a bad thing?

It takes me so long to write anything these days (brain doesn't function to well) it would help if I could reduce some of it

All the best

In principle yes but be aware that there were changes to the Descriptors and Regulations in early 2013 and their have been a number of changes to the DWP guidance since then and in particular during the last year, so you need to verify your answers against the latest ESA Claim guides to make sure that what you have previously written is still valid.
