    Rather than asking about other peoples claims, why not just call the DWP and ask when you should expect your form?
    Gone ... or have I?

    Mine was due in September and hasn't arrived yet - and my husband's was due months and months ago!

    i think the relevant offices are a bit bogged down with ESA at the moment.

    That may cause them to trigger a review and send you for an assessment though.
    [greenhighlight]but it matters when the most senior politician in the land is happy to use language and examples that are simply not true.

    The impact of this is to stigmatise people on benefits,
    and we should be deeply worried about that    [/redtitle](house of lords debate, talking about Cameron)

    Yep, I would agree with that - but surely if the OP is asking the question that is what they want? What is happening in other peoples claims really does not make the OP any the wiser as to what could happen to them.
