Hi there

I was just wondering if you are letting us know what is happening with your benefits or asking a question ?

ESA & DLA are 2 different benefits.

DLA is being changed over for everyone, even people who have been awarded a lifetime award, to PIP (Personal Independence Payments).

I am not a benefits expert but I believe that everyone who is being swapped from DLA to PIP is having to reapply.

We do have a Benefits Adviser Janet who you could get in touch with if you wished?

Hi darcy7777

Welcome to the forum and it is wonderful to make your acquaintance. I have pasted you a link below to our mother site, FMA UK which hosts loads of useful Fibro information:

I want to sincerely wish you all the best of luck with your ESA forms and please take care of yourself.

All my hopes and dreams for you

Ken

Hi there and welcome, it seems you are confused and concerned as to why you are being re assessed for DLA and ESA, this is presently happening to everyone still claiming DLA, can i suggest that you contact your local Citizens Advice Bureau and ake an appointment to go along with your forms and get some help, or maybe a friend, neighbour or relative can help you do that. Blessings.
