is there a time limit that you can claim IS0

As for ESA, I fully understand why you feel like you do. Under IB, you could get away for years without anybody bothering you once you had passed the assessment.
Then they say, that is wrong, people should be reviewed more often.
So they go to the opposite end of the spectrum and think you should be re-assessed sometimes every 3 months!
When will common sense prevail and take the mid point view?
I totally concur with this and just don't understand why they don't spend more of their time reassessing the IB claimants who have been "left alone for years" rather than keeping on reviewing the recent ESA claimants who have gone through the really stringent tests - it is crazy.Stopped smoking 27/12/2007, but could start again at any time :eek:0 -

I have near the begining of the thread and then other posters quoted the criteria for IS and asked if you fitted it but you have ignored us all.0 -

I have given the OP all of the relevant information he needs in order to decide for himself if he fits into the IS category or not.
The OP asked for advice, and not to have to justify to you what he thinks or believes.
He has been given the tools so let him use them. If he has a further problem, no doubt he will ask again.0 -
