Thanks for your help . It is so frustrating to have got this far and for it still to be dragging on ! Let's hope the SAR gets sent out soon and that they don't find an error of law ! THere was me celebrating when the letter from the tribunal came through !!!

This is a legal process, your MP is not allowed to interfere.

It takes the DWP 5-8 weeks to process a Tribunal Decision, which includes the one month that they have in which to request a SoR.
Have you actually received notification from the TS that the DWP have requested a SoR, as what you were told may have just been a stalling tactic to stop you chasing them for payment and in reality they have no intention of appealing,

Thanks Gordon. Yes we have had a letter saying they have requested a SoR. Am I right in saying that once they have reviewed this they will then decide if they want to appeal?

Both parties will have a further month, after the SOR has been sent, in which to appeal the decision if they are going to.
