Work Capability Assessment

A slight update.

You have to fill out a long form.  This is followed by a face to face assessment,  which may be by telephone. They go through all your answers on the form and will ask something new at the end.  They asked me about self harm.

Dear soboiceland, 

Thank you for your post. I hope someone is able to provide more personal advice but in the meantime if you are in the UK I have found the official information on the government website. Please find the link here:

With best wishes,

They go in detail with what you wrote on the form.
