IB50/ESA50 Exempt

Hi all, can someone please clarify.

As i understand prior 2008 under the old rules, those that were on Incapacity Benefit and due reassessment were exempt from filling in an IB50 PCA (Personal Capability Assessment)if in receipt of High rate DLA/Mobility.

My question is, are those rules no longer applicable to The ESA50 WCA (Work Capability Assessment)in law?

Hi,

Under Incapacity Benefit rules one was exempt the PCA if in receipt of High Rate Care Component of DLA.

Under ESA, this and other exemptions no longer apply.
