Hi @Ghostship
Good Afternoon it's great to meet you today ? ? ?
Here's some info on "Esa" below.
https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/benefits/sick-or-disabled-people-and-carers/employment-and-support-allowance/help-with-your-esa-claim/fill-in-form/
Yes you will need to fill it in.
Please please let me know if you need any help doing this???
Both "PIP & Esa" are different Benefit's.
So one won't effect the other one!!!!!
Please please don't worry about your "PIP"

Thanks but What would happen if I don’t fill the form in can we keep pip as I say we can manage does anybody know please

Yes it says on the forms that you have 28 day's to fill it in & send it back.
There is a list of the questions on the forms that I found on the Internet for you.
I can go through these with you if that would help???
Please please don't worry as I can help you if required???

Thanks for that guys think not bothering as the little we get is not worth the stress and hassle or persicution from what I’ve read there’s no Constance agenda how is one department can say one thing and the other make a different decision why don’t they use each other’s medical staff how much this must cost them is beyond me what’s happened to common sence

The reason assessments are needed for both is because they have different criteria. People work and claim PIP. ESA is for those with a limited capability for work.Also be aware that your NI credits towards your pension are being paid while you're claiming the ESA. If you cancel your claim then you may have problems in the future with your pension. Certainly worth thinking about for this reason too.Good luck what ever you decide.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

As said I would still claim as your NI Credits are needed for future pension.
