deed poll
i didn't know what category to choose i recently changed my first name by deed poll to a shorter form of it, the dwp already send letters with my shortened version of my name, do i need to tell them anyway, just worried if i do, it would issue a review of my benefits, any ideas anyone?

Advice needed please
I was awarded New Style ESA on 03/04/24. I am paid fortnightly. I received my ESA50 form in December & had my WCA last week. IF I am placed in the support group, will my payments be backdated? And if so from what date please?

Has anyone spotted this! Dodging HC ruling
The High Court found changes to WCA were illegal becuase they were simply an attempt to save money and not a genuine attempt to help people..so the government just moved to change over to PIP recently..surely it's the same thing..illegal and just to save not help..surely this must go to court

ESA - WCA
Hi! Just wondering how long it normally takes to receive a response from ESA (NS) after sending back the WCA questionnaire. I know it says up to 13 weeks online. However I am not sure if this from when you have had an assessment or if this is from when you send off the form? If its from after you've had an assessment, how…

New Style ESA recipients - Proposed Changes
I can see from various threads those of us on this benefit, and not on UC are left adrift as no-one anywhere appears to be considering, far less attempting to clarify, the situation we face. Given we are vastly outnumbered/drowned out on the main threads discussing the proposed changes, would it be useful for us to band…

Surely this is a cheat..changing WCA to PIP
So as I understand it the previous attempt by the government to change LCWRA descriptors was deemed illegal because sure enough it was in fact only an attempt to save money and not to help or access people too sick to work…so the recent government announcement to merge the WCA criteria with PIP( and non work related…
