Question re Support group, no assessment

Hi,

I have just been placed in the support group with no assessment (IS to ESA migration, new ESA50). I found the guides here very useful - thank you, and thank you to all the moderators for the hard work you put into the forum.

I sent a copy of my completed ESA50 to my local BDC at the same time as returning the ESA50 to Atos.

It would be very helpful for me to know on what grounds I was put into the support group, and, more importantly, when the review date is for reassessment.

I was wondering if anyone knew if this decision would have been made via Atos (I don't know if this happens without an assessment), or if it would have bypassed Atos and been made directly by the DWP decision maker. If I write to my local BDC would I ask for a 'statement of reasons' and would this include the review date?

Thank you for your help.

Pardon my ignorance but who are 'BDC'

Benefit Delivery Centre.

It's the part of the DWP that handles claims and queries.

Doh!!!

Many thanks Derek.

Thank you Derek.
