Many thanks

Hi b,

When providing medical evidence, you should always send copies and keep originals unless they particularly stipulate that they require originals, in which case you should keep copies of the originals.

As this evidence seems recent, you could request further copies from your GP and/or Psychologist if you feel that it may also help your ESA assessment.

Or you could request new supporting evidence which may be more particular to your ESA assessment.

Failing that, you could make comments within the ESA50 that you have recently provided medical evidence for your DLA renewal which may be relevant to your ESA assessment.

Hi b,

Are you currently, or have you previously been under the care of a CPN, as they can sometimes help with ESA assessments ?
