Support group was created by boris1
I was in esa support group for twelve years and out of the blue I received a wca form to complete at the beginning of July.
I sent it in by the deadline and a month later I had a telephone assessment two weeks ago.
I had a decision letter today saying I remain in the support group.
I am amazed it all happened so quickly.
To say I am relelived is an understatement.
How do I get hold of the assessors report?
I would like to know what descriptors I was awarded.
I have tried ringing the number on the letter but I gave up after waiting over half an hour for a reply.

Hi den1mon,

Do you have a universal credit account ? If so, you can send a message in your journal to a workcoach asking for a copy of the assessors report to be sent, if you're unable to get through via telephone. I have done this myself for a copy, and it arrived within a few days. It was called a "UC85" form.

Regards, Chris.

Hi den1mon

As you are in receipt of a legacy benefit you will need to contact ESA enquiry line: 0800 169 0310 and ask for a copy ofthe assessors report called an ESA 85.

You need to contact first thing in the morning, waiting times can be over an hour so find something else to keep you occupied whilst waiting for the phone to be answered.
