I am just filling out the ESA Re assessment form for my son. I filled it out last year, sent evidence and he was put in support group. How far do I go back with evidence this time ? Do I resend last year's evidence a long with this year's? Thanks

    Send the most up to date evidence including last years which DWP should have already.  If still not sure phone DWP for advice not that they are helpful on these matters.

    Hi,

    Send the evidence you have, regardless of whether you sent it last time.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

     Thank you poppy123456 and wilko. I think I am going to send everything I have regardless of whether I've sent it before. Then I know I haven't missed anything. I agree we all have enough to worry about without all of this. Stressful times. Thanks again .
