Hi everyone, I applied for permission to appeal to the Upper Tribunal against the Tribunal's decision. I wanted my PIP go from standard to enhanced.
Today I received a letter from the HM Courts & Tribunals Service.
It says 'I find that is is not appropriate to review the decision because there is no clear error of law in the Tribunal's decision. Permission to appeal is refused because no arguable error of law has been identified. An appeal to the Upper Tribunal can only be on a point of law.
The application, in substance, is seeking to re-argue facts. It also refers to a recent deterioration in health. Permission to appeal cannot be granted on these grounds.' If I wish to continue with my application I can apply directly to the Upper Tribunal. Does it mean that I cannot use my health issues as a reason to appeal? I feel that I wasn't awarded what I deserved.
On the papers it says 'Please tell us what error of law you think the First-tier Tribunal has made.
