Rule 37 set‑aside pip iidb uc lcw
Hi everyone, I’m looking for some guidance from people with experience in complex benefit appeals.
I’ve recently submitted Rule 37 set‑aside requests for multiple past tribunal decisions (IIDB, UC LCWRA, and PIP). At the time of the original hearings I didn’t have access to key medical evidence, and several records were later found to be incorrect or incomplete — including an Emergency Department follow‑up that never reached my GP. Because of that, the wrong diagnosis was repeated across all three benefit assessments.
There was also a forced migration from JSA to UC in December 2017, where no Work Capability Assessment was ever carried out. That UC claim ran until December 2018, covering the same period as the ESA/JSA LCW issue, and this is now part of what I’m querying.
Through SARs and NHS corrections obtained in 2025–2026, I’ve now uncovered:
- missing ED follow‑up
- GP record showing the ED letter was mis‑sent
- MSK/physio notes based on the wrong mechanism
- a medico‑legal expert report relying on the same incorrect information
- imaging contradictions (later blind reviews show trauma‑pattern injury)
- additional GP entries and SAR evidence confirming a fall from a ladder and deterioration and change in diagnosis years later and falsely added rare conditions removed from gp records
- employer evidence showing functional decline
- this also affected my personal injury claim, which I’m now seeking legal help for
All three tribunals relied on the same contaminated evidence, so I’ve asked for the decisions to be set aside and reheard.
I’m not asking for legal advice — just wondering if anyone here has dealt with multiple appeals being reopened at once, or cases where new evidence discovered years later led to a set‑aside or supersession. Any shared experience or insight would be really appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi @ITSALLLIES. This sounds very stressful and complicated, I'm sorry you're having to deal with this. As it is quite complex I would advise you to speak to a trained benefits adviser. You can find one here
