Approx, what is the duration between getting ESA Support benefit and being asked to redo ESA50 form?
I was wondering how often the DWP ask you to redo an ESA50 form, if you are in the Support group? I was put in the Support group in Autumn 2018 (I think), and so I reckon I've been in that group for about 4.5 years now. Very approx, when might the DWP send me another ESA50 form to redo?Thanks for any comments.
