Afternoon all,
quick question, my wife has been claiming ESA in the support group for her depression and ehlers danlos for over a year.

Separately, she has now been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.
is this something we need to rush to tell the DWP, or can we simply put it on her next review? Autism was never eluded to in her first claim, not mentioned.

No because as i advised she's already in the Support Group. It's not about a diagnosis anyway, so that alone won't make any difference.
