as you may remember I reapplied for ESA on 12th November which was 6 months and 1 day after the DM's previous decision based on an ATOS medical.
I detailed my condition and the deterioration and sent GP's supporting letter, carer's supporting letter and GP's 'unfit for work' certificate.
I have heard nothing from them. Is it about time to shout for payment as I believe they must honour the ESA until a new medical is carried out, should they ask for one?
Thank you for any help as I have had zero income for too long now.
You need to phone JCP and ask how your claim is processing, and when you can expect payments.
If you find you do not have any money to live on, you should be able to apply for a Crisis Loan, which will be paid back by reductions in ESA payments. You should of course receive a back payment of ESA so you will not be any worse off.
