Work Focused Interview, Help please.

Hi
Just a quick question.
I have received a Work Focused Interview letter with an appointment for July.
Slightly confused as the notes say "client coming up for a 3 year backstop trigger"
what does that mean? I last worked in Sep 07 but have been on IB before (came off Dec 06) I went back onto IB in Sep 07.
I currently get IB, IS disability top-up, High rate mob DLA, middle rate care DLA, CB, CTC.
My doctor see's me every month and has never signed me fit to work due to my health.
I'm worried about the interview and getting really anxious already. I suffer with severe mobility problems/depression/anxiety and I care for my mother who has Alzhiemers.
Please help?
Thanks

Have a quick look here, hopefully it will answer your questions. It's nothing to worry about at all.

you'll get called for an interview every 3 years if you haven't been seen in between0

It was just the phrase "client coming up for a 3 year backstop trigger" that I couldn't figure out.Think it's about time the comping fairy remembered where I am! lol0 -
that's what they call it, I *think* backstop meant you were already claiming when they started doing the interviews so you are just being brought in now0

Wish they would explain things a little better in the letters and the leaflets they enclosed. Scared the c!!! out of me tbh.
Thanks. xThink it's about time the comping fairy remembered where I am! lol0
