I thought that you were happy with the Decision, why have you requested a copy of the Statement of Reasons, by doing this you are opening the Decision to appeal by the DWP!

There is no required timescale for the Judge of your hearing to produce the SoR, we've seen claimants waiting months for this to be produced.

It's up to you but the first stage to appealing a Tribunal Decision to the UTT is for one of the parties to request a SoR. The DWP will receive a copy of this as well as you.
