work focused interview for inc sup

For IS I believe it is little more than an informal chat where you will be told what help is available.
ESA is much more strict generally speaking.

Maybe if you read of the experience of a well versed poster - post 19, you will note that they actually do sanction you if you don't comply or appear not to comply with any directive.


To just assume that because you may be disabled that the DWP will be your best buddy is taking things too far.


As for the JCP seeing that someone is disabled and should have more help, is like reading a fairy story. I, because of poor advice back in January 2010 signed on for JSA after having been told that the September 2009 claim for ESA had failed.


At my appointment I was told that I had to set up a meeting with a specific agency with a view of looking for work ( having a job already, but off sick didn't seem to feature in the case).
All of this changed when I produced a current sick note and told the advisor that I also received DLA - HRM & MRC as well as IIDB at the 40% rate. My JSA claim was cancelled and was told to claim ESA???????? uummmm

I just knew you would have had problems......:T

Many disabled attend these interviews, and all is fine.

But, not you, obviously.

He said do not worry about it.
