Pip Tribunal - View online evidence?

Lanson66

Hi, can anyone advise me if when you have submitted evidence online by uploading it, how can you view what evidence is on your file? My tribunal is on 13 October by video link and I want to make sure that all evidence that I have submitted is showing on my file. I can track the application online etc but can’t see where I can view the information/ evidence uploaded.

regards

All evidence you supply the court is read by the court and sent to the other party, this also applies to the DWP or PIP.

You can ask for a copy of the documents that are going to be used in the Tribunal to make sure that I you have missed any thing or wish to add further information you can do so before the date of the tribunal.

Even on the day you will be asked if you want the court to look at further information, they will photostat it and give this to the other party for them to see before going in.

So given that evidence is submitted online and my tribunal is by video link, there is no mechanism to view that all the evidence was uploaded correctly and received properly? As we know some files/ documents can corrupt and not load even though the system advised documentation submitted. What I don’t want is for information to be missing from the tribunal appeal that could be vital to my case

Hi @Lanson66, I've been through a PIP tribunal and I remember receiving all the evidence from both sides through the post before the tribunal date. This was a few years ago though so I don't know if they still do this. Hopefully someone else will have more recent experience and can advise you.

I understand not wanting information to be missing, the process is stressful enough. I'm hopeful that everything was uploaded without issues and that you have a positive outcome.

Hi, I think it’s standard practice to receive the bundle of information prior to the tribunal date which I received several months ago, this outlines why DWP reached their initial decision. Since then I have uploaded much more supporting documentation to contradict their original decision, I am able to upload documents to support my argument and up to the court date. What I ideally need to see is a list of documents which have been uploaded, I’m guessing that this isn’t an option so once my video tribunal gets on the way, if some documents sent as evidence have not been uploaded then there’s no way of resolving this during a video hearing
