    I certainly will @poppy123456, the final
    pages of my application looked as followed despite me saying I had no ssp due to having ESA in the last 12 weeks, is it safe to presume this is just because as you said this is the same form to process and therefore automatic pages that come up whether you are a (for argumentsake) a first time new claimer or a *returning within 12 weeks* new claimer. If so they could certainly make it easier for people by having different pre populated pages come up based on the answers given to the SSP question and 12 week answer.

    Yes it’s the same process as the first time you claimed. Your claim now needs to be linked with your previous claim. 
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
