They have said that a…

He was later placed in the Support Group. Over…

Reassessments?
Hi are reviews still suspended for ESA? I'm seeing a lot of people getting ESA50 forms. I know they are still going ahead for new claim and those who received a form before COVID or those who haven't had one in years but I believed for everyone else there suspended still. My mom's last review was in 2019 and wondered if…

This seems to date back to 2019 when I had £6600 in my account, however much of this was used to purchase items and decoration as I had just moved into more appropriate…

Is it necessary to print all of the ESA50 form if I am not filling it part 1: physical functions?
I am completing the form on my computer. Typing it then printing it out. My condition is mental health. I will not be filling out the part 1 of the form about the physical functions. It is just blank. Do I have to print this out too? Can I ignore this part and print out eveything else?

Is it okay to send lots of extra pages with my ESA50 form?
The boxes on the form are just not big enough for me to say what i need to say. Even with the additional information box at the end. I have a real difficult time explaining things in a concise manner. I will be including lots of extra pages of text with the form. This will all be typed up as opposed to handwriting. Will…

ESA question regarding voluntary work
I have found a voluntary job in an effort to get myself back to the work place. Two hours a week volunteering in a library. Is it required that I declare this to the dwp? I am in receipt of ESA. I imagine it's a requirement. I do also wonder if this might trigger another assessment. thank you
