I've literally just had a date come through for PIP tribunal, mid April... I take it tribunals aren't being suspended unless the system just hasn't been updated?

I haven't hear anything about Tribunals but do be aware that it could apply to those at some point in the near future.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -

Your suggestion will only result in more people being awarded the benefit that they may well not be entitled to.
The general public expect strict conditions to apply where there are others asking for money.
That was the problem with DLA. Your illness/disability was enough for you to qualify.
