A few weeks ago I sent a letter from my gp to the tribunal services. who I assume have forwarded it to the dwp. The dwp have said they will "vigorously defend" their decision. Do they have to send a response to both me & the panel before tribunal? It's a very thorough letter detailing both my physical & mental health. I'm hoping it will be taken into consideration at my hearing. Apologies if I'm being a nuisance, this seems to be the only place where members have experience of appeals.
