The Rt Hon Amber Rudd promised that disabled people receiving SDP would not be forced
on to Universal Credit until Transitional protection is in place but Revenues and Customs
state that its 50/50 whether or not this new Gateway condition will happen at all

Actually you'll be able to put a claim in on the 16th Jan... taken from the above link.Restriction on claims for universal credit by persons entitled to a severe disability premium
4A. No claim may be made for universal credit on or after 16th January 2019 by a single claimant who, or joint claimants either of whom—
(a)is, or has been within the past month, entitled to an award of an existing benefit that includes a severe disability premium; and
(b)in a case where the award ended during that month, has continued to satisfy the conditions for eligibility for a severe disability premium.”

If they refuse your claim then you should give them a copy of this legislation and proof of your SDP award.

@Government_needs_reform ah, i don't always look over on that part of the forum. Had i seen it then i wouldn't have posted the link here lol. Oh well, it's here now for others to seeIt was quiet, which is how i like it. Hope yours was good too? I'm sure there's a lot of people going to be very happy with this legislation, i know i am. It means that i can finally look for a new home and widen my search, so there's more choice.Take some time for yourself now and put your feet up, you've earned a rest1

@poppy123456 you know me I like a little banter and is no malice meant as you know. I don't matter if it been posted before, I'm not bothered⭐️
As for Xmas New year I really can't remember much about it. It was peacful let's say, glad yours was ? too.
Yes this is good news about SDP will be good for a great many people, but in truth it's still not enough. UC is a killer and many more will surely suffer that's why I'm hoping this Government gets kicked out before it's to late.
But for now this SDP legislation will help..
I will carry on bashing the Government over this and I won't give them a moments peace either.

My local council are refusing to backdate my claim for Housing Benefit on their grounds they state " there has been no continuous good cause to backdate my claim " sufficient for me to say that I am not afraid to go to a court or a tribunal hearing were I will say I HAVE got continuous good cause to backdate the claim
based on the fact that if I had gone over to Universal Credit I would have lost over £400 of my SDP and EHP benefit and this would have more seriously impacted
on my finances and daily living and have an even more serious impact on my health.
The TRUTH is the councils want to blame us in this matter and if they can't blame us they will blame DWP which is the ROOT CAUSE of these problems with the government
