Starting work on DLA

Hello all. I have searched but not found anything too specific to my query, hope you can help.ibrosis and receives the higher rate with the mobility. He has left Uni and has just been offered a job on the apprentiship scheme as an office accounts worker. He was given a medical via a home visit approx three years ago after he was on the higher rate for two years, he satisfied the Doctor who came to our home, he stayed on the higher rate and it was awarded indefinitely.

We are going to inform DWP of the new job but we are worried of the possible implications. Do you think this might trigger a review? He was most stressed before the visit and we are most anxious to avoid a repeat. The employment does not entail any physical work, just a desk job.

Also is it inevitable that he will be reviewed anyway due to the new rules? There is no cure for CF as yet and it is unfortunately highly unlikely he will improve. Any opinions/advice would be most welcome. Regards nomlas

Many thanks Gordon. I dont think there is anything on his claim that should be a problem, he was at a normal school at the time and then went to Uni, all of which they were made aware of. He will be working for a close family friend who has known him all his life, in fact he is his Godson, and will be well looked after. Would this be relevant and if I explained all this in a letter to DWP do you think they would they take it into consideration? Also my second question, is a review inevetable anyway? Thanks again.

Thanks again Gordon. Well we will just send all the details about the job and stress the no physical aspect of it also the close relationship between the Employer and himself.

Incidently how can I remove my name from the forum postings? I thought you only use the username. Regards and thank again.
