    Hi,

    No, this isn't usually what happens. If you're in a group then no fit/sick notes are needed. If you've been found fit for work then your ESA would completely stop and no nick notes would be needed at that point.

    My advice is to ring ESA Monday morning and ask when you've been sent that letter.
    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.
