Hi Everybody
Wondered if anybody can advise how I ask the UT directly for permission for leave to appeal to UT?
Is it possible to do this online, in the same way that I appealed at FTT? I have the formal rejection from FTT to my request so want to ask the UT now.
Is there a link or portal where you start this process? Ive found an online UT1 form but it doesn't seem to allow me to save the document, nor is it in PDF form.
These probably seem like really stupid questions to people who are more tech savvy than me (which is probably most people to be fair :-)
I'm just getting a bit worried as I'm going to be away for a bit and won't easily have access to the paper copies of documents, only stuff Ive scanned onto my laptop, so I'm worried about time constraints if it isn't possible to do it online.
Any advice appreciated. Thanks in advance everyone
Best wishes

Thank you so much @Oxonlady. It's really kind of you to take the time to message; even if you can't answer my query its still uplifting to know there are people out there who are so lovely and supportive. So once again, thank you. Have a great week-end.
Hugs,

Yes and yes. The error in law is that the tribunal incorrectly applied the law with regard to descriptor (9?) Social interaction.
They applied the descriptor as though in a transactional situation, or rather, viewed on their perception of my dealing with professionals/medical staff and not in social interaction (ie making new friendships/sustaining ongoing social relationships etc)
The DWP had also awarded no points for tgat descriptor as the hcp had said I did not seem anxious, maintained eye contact, interacted well etc.
The tribunal used the same parameters in their statement of reasons to reject my appeal. Ergo, error in law0
