I was on ESA for over a year and have not been assessed so I rang them and I have had a paper assessment until 2017 they had enough information on my application form
Hello and sorry I cannot help with your question as I had my benefits sorted out years ago...but have you tried contacting our Benefits Advisor who may I am sure give you some useful information....Good Luck x
Hi chris69 I have been on contribution esa for 11 months now I got letter 3 weeks ago calling me into job centre which I did the ladies who was very nice told me my money runs out in Nov she then said as long as is sent esa50 off I'd be OK I explained I had no esa50, which now left me with 6 weeks to get form fill it in send it off and wait for medical she said oh well they've had back log 2 days later I received esa50 and letter to say stopping my money in Nov (what back log) so I'm now waiting for a appointment medical and to see if I will get esa again they say your on esa for 12 months after 13 weeks you'll be assessed but it's anywhere between 13 weeks and a year fingers crossed it goes OK for both of us ☺
Hi chris69
I am so genuinely sorry that you are so worried about this and I have pasted you a link about exemptions from work form the Child Action Poverty website. It is quite a read though:

I want to genuinely wish you all the best of luck.
All my hopes and dreams for you
Ken
