Hi,I failed my ATOS medical assessment with 0 points,and have sent in an appeal along with a sick note from my GP.

 

My understanding is that they should pay me ESA at the Assessment Rate but when I asked them if this would be means tested they declined to answer,which seems odd.

 

I've been on Incapacity Benefit for years,so I've paid enough NI contributions,and if I'd scored 15 points I'd have been paid Contribution Based ESA for 365 days.

 

Does the Assessment Rate come in two types,or is it all means tested?

The assessment rate can be either means tested or contribution based. If you are transferring from IB, you should receive the contributory version of ESA while awaiting the outcome of your appeal.
