    Hi and welcome

    It is not unusual for a DM to review a case prior to tribunal especially if you have submitted more evidence

    Thank you for your reply
    Do you have any idea what this could mean as I'm very confused

    It may not mean anything at all, just the DWP making sure of their position
    Do you have a date for your hearing ?
