RE: ESA during appeal - med cert demanded Thu 31-Dec-09 08:39 AM
I think that is correct, she does have to send in sick notes. Appealing extends the assessment phase, and you need a sick note during the assessment phase.
The question is whether they are correct to demand a fresh sick note after the appeal has been made when the previous sick note hasn't run out yet. That's what they ask for here.
