Passed IB medical

I wonder why the people who are awaiting their IB reviews are waiting so long.
Is it just because the system is overloaded?
I don't know.
I suspect they would have left me alone for 18 months as recommended by the doctor if they were not rolling out the migration onto ESA.
If i am still ill by the time of my review i suspect it will be under the ESA WCA.
I just wish they would leave me alone and let me get on in making the slow progress to get better with help of those that know me best.
I am trying not to worry as to what will happen in FEb 2011.
Best wishes

Hi all

Okay, I have no idea if this is the right place to post this question, but I hope you don't mind me doing so.

Can anybody tell me if the score you get on your ESA form has any bearing on the result of your work capability medical. I need to know as I have received some important information today which could make a lot of difference to my appeal.

Any help would be much appreciated, if I've posted in the wrong place, then point me in the right direction, thanks

Hi Pusscat

To ask a benefit question click on the NEW THREAD button at the top of the page, this will create your own thread (topic).

I'm a little bit puzzled by your question. You don't get a score on your ESA medical form, unless you mean the ESA medical report (ESA85). The score you get on the medical report usually determines the result of the Work Capacity Assessment.

Hope this has been helpful, if not, click on the new thread button to ask another question.

Thanks
