Bit of a bizarre question but in this crazy world it actually makes sense.
I have a joint claim for ESA with my wife, she has been called in for a WFI (previous post), she is disabled (receives DLA MRC/HRM) and has not worked for at least 15 years because of it.
As it is a joint claim can my wife be assessed for work, in other words could she be sent an ESA50 etc.
Thanks
Stephen
Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems
If it is you that is claiming the ESA, with your claim including her as your wife/partner, then she does not have to be assessed for work, although she can be obliged to attend WFIs unless she is in the support group in her own right.
