the other half is getting DLA, and applied for esa, she was turned down for this so she has been living off DLA, hasnt appealed yet, now she has recieved a letter from dwp asking for a medical on a saturday morning, stating that its to do with a claim,doesnt say which claim. what she would like to know is.......
is this to do with the esa claim she filed, which was march 2012
or is this to do with her current dla benefit, and if she goes for this medical will it only be valid until april 2013 when the dla benefit changes to pip and then have to go for another or will it be valid for the 365 days?
she was just thinking of going in april so she doesn"t have to keep putting herself through this.
any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

If your paperwork doesnt give a clue you will maybe have to give them a ring!
As for her wanting to go in April im afraid she doesnt get any choice.0 -
The change of DLA to PIP starts in 2013 but will take at least three years to complete, there is currently no way to predict when a claimant will be moved.0
