Hi Jorgie2016

I haven't heard anyone being asked those particular questions after an appeal win, but someone else might have. He should receive the money quite quickly - if he can face it - I would ring and ask the reason for the call.

These are actually standard questions prior to the payment of a Tribunal Decision, all potentially (if yes) can affect the amount of money to be paid.
