Is this ESA letter right?

FOXBAZ69

Hello again guys.

I am so confused….

I started a managed migration on 16th October to go from ESA Support Group over to UC and to then go onto the LCWRA group.

I have just 2 days ago, on 31st October, been informed that I am now in the LCWRA group, as I was previously like i said, been in the ESA Support Group.

I have been in the Support Group since 2017, originally from a Court Tribunal decision due to ESA actually giving me ZERO points at my original medical (yes, zero). To be fair, in 2021 ESA conconcured With the Tribunal decision with a home visit. My condition is progressive so i only actually get worse each time I've seen them.

Anyway, I have also been told that my ESA will continue, and my UC will be adjusted accordingly, and because now I'm in the LCWRA group, UC have cancelled any upcoming appointments for a Job search as I have the ESA Support Group transfer protection in place.

However, ESA have now sent me a letter, just received it today, Saturday 22nd Nov, telling me to attend a work focused interview on 6th November vie phone call with the usual threat of sanctions should I not comply.

Is this right? Is it normal procedure to do this, at least this soon into a UC transfer?

Can ESA tell me to do this? And because I have my original Tribunal papers saying that I'm unfit for work, can ESA ignore that and ask me to work, even though I have a 24 carer who does absolutely everything for me because I'm not mobile and my fingers are useless and twisted etc?

Or is this a standard procedure after a transfer…..?

Any help would be great!!

David.
