In the event however, You are in receipt of IB ESA or alternatively if You can achieve ESA Support group status no panic.

Most laws not just benefit would start the clock ticking from 1st April 2011 thus giving you till 2012, that said if they have decided to use another date that would be set out in the regulations, its normaly only when closeing tax loop holes they back date laws or where people are going to be made better off
