ESA Pathway to work interview...but G/F will be overseas at that time?! What do I do?

ESA...just what you think the job-centres reaction will be to moving pathway to work interview back 2 weeks or so as she's abroad?

I dont think its going to be a major problem so long as they are advised in good time that she is going to be unable to make the scheduled appointment and when she will be able to attend a new appointment.

You need to tell the processing centre that your GF is abroad though - they need to be sure that it is a temporary holiday.

Thanks ESA-will do! Is it usual for them to do the pathways interview BEFORE medical questionaire completed (sending this early next wk once checked by her CPN).

That I am not sure of - I work on the processing side of the benefit rather than the PTW end of things so I dont really have much to do with interviews.

OK....THANKS again ESA for taking the time to help me.

All sorted! Job Centre staff were fine & have rescheduled. Called DWP to inform them & they were fine too.
