I am applying for appeal and wanted to know if my medical evidence is only useful up to assessment date or will they consider medical evidence after this date such at starting counselling 2 weeks after assessment and physiological report 2 months after assessment. Not sure what date is valid as appeal can take 6months. Are they interested in how I am in 6 months time or just when the assessment date was. If not successful at appeal can I request apply thanks
The appeal can only consider your conditions and limitations as they were at the time that the Decision was made, you can submit new evidence but it must explicitly state that it relevant to that time or you risk it being excluded.

Will this evidence still be considered as I didn't know decision for certain when at GP. But design dated 14th mAy. If I get pychological report now will it b accepted as evidence if back dated thanks
I think the GP letter should be OK and providing the psychological report makes it clear that it also refers to when the Decision was made then it should also be accepted.
