Hi CV,

Yes, send your "fit note" into the benefits office that normally deals with your benefits, keeping a copy.

Then send a further photocopy in with your GL24 also, post both by recorded delivery.

So, your normal benefits office will have the original, the DWP will also have a copy enclosed with your GL24, and you will also have a copy just in case.

I know it may seem a bit of an "overkill" but we all know how things can get "lost" in that bottomless pit at the DWP. :laugh:

Hi CV,

Just me being over cautious as usual, but you can also make comment with your GL24 that you have enclosed a photocopy of your fit note, and sent the original to your benefits office in a seperate envelope.

It may be advantageous to do this, as the DWP must have your appeal (GL24) and a fit note, before they will pay you the assessment rate of ESA.

Cheers :)
