    Frak. *cursing* I am struggling to get my forms finished for renewal, if I filled them in by type I wouldn't have enough space but it hurts to do it by hand... I hate FMS and I hate these stupid forms. They make me feel so bad about myself. :(

    If you find it easier to type, then type out the information on separate sheets, and on the form just write 'Please see sheet x'. On the typed sheets, label each one 'Page x of y' - sounds obvious but it means they can check that they have all the sheets.
    Gone ... or have I?

    Mm. Trouble with that is that I don't have a printer, so I'm going to have to pay for it at an internet caf!. But it's a good idea, so thank you. It's a lot easier for me to type than to write, lately. Damn fibro...

    I was going to make that same suggestion, it's what I am doing for my appeal. There is never enough space on these d**$ forms .....
  • My appeal was sent last Monday, had acknowledgement of receipt on Friday saying it'll be another 11 weeks before a decision.
    Heard this morning that my appeal has been upheld and successful - including Christmas Bonus !!!.

    Moral is, don't let the first (or second) decision go - if you have a case - perservere .....
