My Last Post

Hi everybody

So this is my last post.

I've tried to reply to everybody who has thanked me, if I have missed your post then please accept my apologies I have appreciated everything that was posted.

I wanted to leave you with some good advice if I can.

Many have asked how I have been able to answer the questions in the forum, I have no secret power, I just read the guides and I recommend that you all do as well, they really do have the answers to so many of your questions.

Make sure you read and understand the Descriptors for the benefit you are claiming they are defined in law, if you understand these then you will understand how you will be assessed.

There are many definitions in the guide, they are as important as they allow you to understand how the Descriptors operate.

For those of you asking questions that are not covered by the guides, try an internet search you may be surprised at how easy it is to find an answer to your question.

One last comment, please ask if you are unsure of what you are doing, we see too many members coming to the forum after they have done something that they then regret, asking may have avoided them doing it.

As to forum, I leave you in the good hands of BIS and Gary but if you feel like contributing, giving something back, then please consider being a Moderator yourself Steve is going to be running training sessions for new Mods next year.

Lastly, I want to wish everybody the very best with their benefit claims, remember it's a process, you just have to understand what that process is and you can be successful.

Gordon
