I'm not sure if this has been in previous posts ...
Under the old IB/IS scheme it was accepted (sometimes reluctantly by the DWP ) that you continued to be entitled to reduced IS whilst appealing to the Commissioners from a negative appeal decision on the PCA.
Does the same apply to ESA, i.e can you continue to get basic ESA whilst pursuing an appeal to the Upper Tribunal?
If so, what happens whilst you are a) awaiting the statement of reasons ( as no application for leave can be made until you have it - so are you actually appealing during this period? ) and b) waiting for leave from the First Tier Tribunal ( again, are you actually appealing whilst waiting for leave?).
