Can I change the location of my PIP tribunal?

johno77

Hi, I have just joined this community, mainly because I am waiting for a tribunal for ESA support. and PIP.
This morning I received my tribunal date for PIP (late Nov) in Fox court.
The other week I received my ESA notice of court, which was of course Fox Courts in the city, but I managed to get it changed to Romford, my reasons being that my friend was driving and would find it impossible to find parking space, and due to my anxiety/panic attacks a train or bus journey, and I use a walking aid it would be more than uncomfortable. I was just wondering if I can get my PIP tribunal changed to Romford also.....
Thanks

Hi @johno77, and a warm welcome to the community!

I'm unsure of this myself, but hopefully some of our other members will be in touch soon and able to advise. In the meantime, you may like to have a look at Scope's advice on appealing DWP decisions to help you prepare.

HI,

The only way to find out is to ring HMCTS and ask if you can change it, as i'm guessing this was how you changed the other Tribunal location?

@poppy123456, Actually it was my friend who got it changed for me, as I have a bad stammer and generally keep away from phone calling. But I am meeting said friend tomorrow and I was just trying to get some info before hand.
