Do you have a link to the stats/proof of this?
By getting people of benefits, do you mean - into work, or just of benefits completely?
I know the official dwp produced ESA impact assessment does state
But as you can see, that only says *some* go into work, the rest will just be leaving the benefits system, but not into work...... most likely those so sick of the whole nightmare they give up the claim process and go live in a cardboard box or something.
(read more quotes from impact assessment)
By helping people off benefits I mean just that - they dont claim another benefit but return to work or do whatever they do.0 -
My husband had a stroke last October and was on SSP until April, and then his money dropped to £64.30. He has had his ATOS medical today.
Does anyone know how long it will be before he hears anything from them
Thank you0 -

Can be anywhere from a week to a couple of months. The money continues in the meantime though.0 -

Does anyone know how long I should leave it before contacting ESA office? I have had my group changed to Support at reconsideration and although ive had a letter from the appeals officer I have not heard anything official or had a payment at new rate and back pay?
Many thanks...NASA I hope my spelling is up to the mark this morning?I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.0 -
