Hi jess, I scored 0 points at my medical and appealed. On the morning of my appeal I got a phone call to say the panel had decided I did not need to attend and placed me in the support group under reg 35

Hi Susan, can I ask if you drew attention to certain areas that you felt they overlooked and did you mention you felt under reg 35 you should be in the support group. Sorry for the questions but it's reassuring that others have went through the same and came out with the right outcome.

Thank you

Jess

Hi J,

I'm not intending to butt in, and Susan may wish to answer also, but it is advisable to point out any information that you feel has been overlooked, in particular, with respect to the SG Descriptors.

If you also feel that you qualifiy for SG under Exceptional Circumstances, again point this out giving reasons why you feel that there would be substantial risk.

Remember that the appeal submission will first go to a different, probably more senior Decision Maker, who will look again over your case file and any new evidence.

Thank you Bro, I appreciate that and you are not butting in at all. I don't know what I would have done without all your help

Hi jessica, I did put all my information in my questionairre but when I failed my medical and appealed my support worker and I sent a separate letter addressed to the appeal panel quoting the regulations that i thought my condition fitted in too. Hope this helps
