Have my appeal on Friday. I sent evidence off on the 9th, but they haven't confirmed receipt of this

TeddyB22

Hi. I wonder is this normal?
I have my Appeal via video link on Friday 23rd this week. I sent off evidence (medical & a enecdotal) on 9th of July but I have not been notified that they have received it yet. No phone call, no text. Usually they send a letter.
What should I do?

Hi

Where did you send it was 8r to dwp or tribunal court

There are huge delays in post being scanned onto the dwp system which needs to happen before they will say that it has been received

Have you kept copies you can refer to

May be worth a call to them but doubt it will get you very far

I remember the form I sent off with it, it stated on that to send the evidence to the Clerk Of The Appeals. That's who I addressed it to. The form was basically asking me to notify them if I was going to the appeal & if I had representation.

janer1967

That will have gone to the court then so they should have it for your appeal

That is probably why you haven't had a text

TeddyB22

I hope so. I'll bring copies on the day just incase.
Thank you for your advice.

*update*
Would you believe a letter confirming they have received the evidence just came through the door this minute?
They cut it fine.

At least you can relax now knowing they have it

TeddyB22

Yes, I just hope it's enough. It's been over a year and the evidence is 5-6 months old but I'm hoping they'll understand with Covid and such. Just can't wait for it to be over. I had mobility taken off me at a supersession last year so I know they can be harsh.
Got to think positive.
Take care.

It doesn't matter the evidence is dated then as the tribunal will only take into account how your condition was at time of assessment

That is because that is the decision you are appealing

Good luck for your tribunal and let us know how you get on

TeddyB22

Will do. And thank you.

I'm due to go to a tribunal tomorrow. I'm paying my brother to take me. If he let's me down which he has done in the past I'll have to pay hundreds of pounds to get a taxi there which would be awful for my anxiety.
