I've just gotten a letter through telling me in have a medical in 3 weeks time BUT i haven't been sent an esa50 form. Is this normal for reassements or should i have been sent one (maybe its taking its time in the post?)?
That said when i had my first assessment in 2009 i sent of an esa50 but when i had my medical they didn't have it with them, so i'm wondering if its specific to certain illnesses somehow?
sorry am a bit confused

If they believe that you are seriously mentally ill your not expected to do an ESA50 I read on here once so maybe thats why you've had no form.0 -
Strangely enough, I had to fill in this form and was then told there's no expectation for me to attend a medical. Very confusing, hope you get it sorted.0

Whilst it is possible to be excused the medical as a result of what you ESA50 (and other evidence) says, I can't think of any circumstances where you would attend an ESA medical without having completed an ESA50.xXMessedUpXx wrote: »I've just gotten a letter through telling me in have a medical in 3 weeks time BUT i haven't been sent an esa50 form.

You should contact your local DWP office, just to make sure that they haven't sent one and you just haven't received it.0
