ESA renewal?

[hamble99b]

anyone in support group had to fill in the new 2013 re-assessment forms?

Yes I had phone call from DWP around 8 weeks ago. Then the dreaded ASTOS send the form for me to complete. They have had it since 9th September. Still awaiting a response from DWP.

I filled the forms...same in august and not heard a response....although when I called. They said my claim Is income related...so I automatically presumed it meant there was no need for me to do one of those tests....I did however have to do one for disability allowance. Still waiting on their decision. Dr came couple weeks back. Made the claim in June!

I filled in the form two months ago and received my answer three weeks ago and was put in the ESA with support group non income related but I do believe it does take quiet some time for income related claims to come through. I would just think to myself at this point NO NEWS is GOOD NEWS but if you feel you have waited to long you can appeal for a answer under the 30 day rule whereby they have to inform you where you are by mail or phone after thirty days of waiting because then at least you know they are definatly reviewing your claim. Not much consolation I'm afraid but the best I can do hope this helps.

the letter only mentions filling them in so I can be considered for "converting to ESA".

I'm already in esa support group.
