Well done Annubis, I am so pleased to hear your result. I too have just done almost the same thing. I have posted off my short form ESA50 and enclosed an extra 40odd sheets of supporting evidence besides filling in and writing in every spare section of paper on the form, it will take them a while to read everything but I am fed up of having to go through everything repeatedly. Im in the work related group but have been deferred twice for 6 months from WRA interviews, I hope they see sense and put me in the support group where I belong. Ive just gone through an appeal tribunal and been awarded HRM and MRC the new ESA50 short form arrived on my mat 1 day after the appeal so ive been kept very busy. Im pleased for your success. Well done

Absolutely delighted ! thank you B&W for all the information you provide it has proved invaluable to me and my success of finally being transferred to the support group.
I was called in for a work related medical which was held with a lovely nurse who immediately told me that she wouldn't be keeping long as she was suggesting I be put into the support group. She had read and digested all the information I provided with the ESA50 short forms and as I stated in my previous e mail I had included numerous paperwork from my specialists, GP, various appointment letters in fact anything that I thought would carry any weight with my claim and prove once and for all that the many problems I suffer from are genuine and do affect my ability to work. Please do not give up hope, seek all the information you can from B&W and remember to write as much information on the ESA50 that you possibly can, I used every spare inch in or out of the boxes besides enclosing at least 40 other documents backing up my claims. If I had sent everything in my possession I would have needed a box so I selected something from each of the consultants and specialists to confirm my claims.
I was told at the face to face meeting that I would now be left alone for at least 18months, quite possibly 2 years and that she was including in her report details of all the other qualifying conditions that I have which will keep me in the support group at the end of this term. Apparently she can only place me in the support group with one condition but because I have several qualifying me she said that I would and should be kept in this group now. My battle is not entirely settled though as my appeal for the disability allowance was only granted for 1 year so I shall have to wait and see if I am called or not when renewal times up ? For the moment however, I can rest easy and stop worrying about paperwork and concentrate on doing what is best for my numerous conditions and my impending surgery.
Good luck to you all. I shall be renewing my subscription with B&W when that time comes, thank you , once again.
