Hello anne, i got mine with 12 months, you will be asked to go see a work adviser every 3 months to see how you are doing at the job centre but yes you wont have your next assessment till then, and yep they also back date your money, so you are aloowed to be pleased with yourself well done you hugs xx

I don't want to worry you but ESA is now only awarded for 12 months , after that you're migrated onto income related ESA . That's fine if you're single and have no other income but if you're married or living with someone and they are working your money stops.

The only people that doesn't apply to is those in the support group.
