Hi Beverly

Whilst I am no benefit expert , the PIP award has nothing to do with the ESA, as this is award to help you and is not income based, so you can work whilst getting PIP. ESA is and allowance for you being unable to work. So effectively you can have both. So yes you could still have an assessment.

hope this helps

Hi Beverly, yes if you are not working and continuing claim benefit . But as I said I am not a benefit expert. please check will Citizen Advice Bureaux or a benefit advisor.
