Good luck with this Emweaver .... fingers crossed.
THANKS kazz ... really appreciate your message! I'm not sure I'm ready to run with another set of forms - I have had DLA in past. However, will keep this under review.
Best Wishes!

Kazzah, if your talking about 'Special Rules' then a DS1500 can be used to make the award more or less immediate, not that that is much consolation.0

I agree it is a Battle to get the appropriate disability benefits due to this and more likely the next Tory government using the media to portray genuine disability welfare claimants as scroungers Goebbels(nazi party propagandist) couldn't do it better!!! The main aim of this government with these draconian measure is to knock as many as possible off disability benefits .
However i also agree that it is a good idea to work the system to your benefit pardon the pun
Perhaps the attitude expressed in your second point is the reason that the application procedure has to be rigorous?0 -
