ESA/DLA Review dates

Hello

Does anyone know if ESA or DLA review dates ever happen
later than shown on the letters, like my transfer from
Incapacity Benefit did ( a year later than on the letter)?

I am asking because my review dates for both benefits
are within a month of each other, and I am worried
about having to ask my doctor for two seperate letters
of support at the same time.

I know I won't be able to use the same letter for
both benefits, although my doctor might ask me to.

Thank you

DLA is awarded for a fixed period of time. forms are usually sent out several months in advance so that there is little/no break in payment.

ESA is an indefinate award and the re-assessment dates are only advisory. Time will tell whether the recommendations will be adhered to or not.
