Hi Oli73

Welcome to the forum.

You might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explains where everything is; www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/guides-for-claimants/faq/forum.

Congratulations on your award you can now sit back and relax, yes the assessors report is called a ESA 85.

Hi Gary,

Thank you for your reply and welcoming me to the forum (though, I guess you've seen my previous posts on this particular topic!).

Do I need to ask for copies of anything other than the ESA85? Such as ESA85a and ESA65?

How do I go about obtaining the report(s)? Do I call DWP or write to them (is there a form)?

Thank you,

Oli

Hi Oli73

Unless you had a paper assessment, you will need to ask for a UC85 either via your journal or UC helpline.

As for ESA65, I have no idea what that is.

Hi Gary,

Thank you for your response.

The ESA85, ESA85a and ESA65 are talked about on this forum and elsewhere on the web.

I am not on Universal Credit, so via a journal or UC helpline is not an option. I will contact the DWP.

O

ESA85 - in-person assessment report
ESA85A - paper-based assessment report
ESA65 - internal DWP Decision report, was primarily used for claimants moving from IB to ESA, not sure if still used.
