I'm due to have to reapply for IR-ESA soon. I'm expecting the form to arrive in September. Am I likely / definitely going to have to apply for UC instead of ESA?
ESA is an indefinite award with scheduled reassessment based on the Prognosis Date completed by the assessor in their report, so your existing ESA award continues in payment until a new Decision is made. I would doubt that you will be sent a renewal form, you will more than likely be sent a letter inviting you to apply for UC.
