ESA-Cloning 'same old' answers for Next Renewual questionaire?(condition not changed
gemmaking
Posts: 422 Forumite
ESA claim assessment questionnaire was made a year ago, (no medical, no face to face, straight in the support group - as medical evidence was given in).
renewal is due soon, but the health condition hasn't changed.
the GP can confirm this.
(as my claim pack 2 years ago, I photocopied all answers to all questions)- and the new claim pack questionnaire hasn't changed since that old questionnaire.
Can I just photocopy these answers from last time, and send them as my answers to this renewal claim, (as the health condition hasn't changed) ?
so basically, rather than write the answers to all questions again, can the old answers be 'photocopied' and just send with the claim pack ?

I would suggest no.
I think they would likely return the form and you could have a delay in your ESA being sorted out.
If you have issues with your hands or wrists it may be an idea to get somebody to do the writing for you.
I have the ESA form but haven't posted it in yet.
Though you can apply on the phone so maybe you can renew on the phone?0
