    Yes. If a decision doesn't go in your favour payments will stop 4 weeks after the decision is made. If it goes in your favour then you'll have a new award notice.

    Did you send it by recorded delivery (signature) did you also photo copy the form so you have a copy for yourself?

    If the answer is no to those then the only thing you can do is fill that form out again to re-send it, this time through recorded delivery.

    Did you send evidence with the form? If so, i hope it was copies only.

    You will still need evidence even though it's a review. Don't automatically assume that as there's no changes you'll be given another award. So many people lose their awards at review, even with no changes. Don''t leave anything to chance and send evidence with you form. Good luck.

    Ok thank you I suppose it might be a good thing in the long run that they didnt receive it so it gives me chance to send more evidence

    ESA is totally different to PIP. ESA is for those with a limited capability for work. People claim PIP and work. For PIP it's how those conditions affect yoou daily and this is how you score those points. Along with evidence too
