Hi had to change from dla to pip filled in form and sent before Christmas f2f with atoms February went from high rate for getting around and medium care indefenately to standard care and no mobility at all mandatory reconsideration gave t he same so I sent appeal application in april since then I've sent in a GPS letter a neurologists report photos showing the muscle wastage in my legs all these contradict the atos medical assessors report.ive also sent in my statement all in all about 130 pages of evedence.i have no date for appeal yet I have read of dwp offering claiments extra before it gets to the tribunal I wonder what chance there is of this happening ? If they contact claiments by phone or letter? I am preparing to go all the way to the tribunal but naturally if it could be settled earlier and without all that stress it would be brilliant We t
The DWP do on occasion make offer a revised Decision to claimants before their appeal hearing, if it happens then it is most likely to occur in the week before your hearing, they are most likely to contact you by phone but it could be in writing.
I have to warn you that this does not occur very often and they may are not obliged to offer you the award you are seeking, just one that is better than the existing award.
