It has been a few years since I've had to deal with form filling, and this site has been a godsend before, thank you all very much.

My wife has been in ESA Support group since change over from IB, with last form completed in 2017. She's now received an ESA50 (NI) form to fill in. Is this the normal form for being reassessed?

As an aside, having checked the online assessment, I reckon she should score at least 30 points (nothing has really changed), so is she likely to have to endure a face to face?

Thanks

Yes, this is the normal form.

Remember, SG awards are made because the claimant meets one or more of the associated Descriptors not because they have scored points, however, that might be. See our ESA/UC Claim guide for more details.

Hi
I was reassessed last year after having been in esa cb support group since 2016
I had a telelephone assessment that lasted about an hour and a half with IAS.
To be be honest it was extremely thorough and fair.
It was obvious the assessor had read my application form, supporting evidence and even made reference to my original claim form details.
I had a text the same day stating the report had been sent to the dwp.
I rang and requested a copy which I received promptly and then I received the decision aftet about two weeks saying I am in the cb support group.
