incapacity payment not gone in bank today

mercedes125

My incapacity payment has not gone in the bank the only thing I can think is that my sick note that I sent in 4wks ago must have gone missing in the post.I can't really do anything unroll tomorrow if the note has hone missing would I be able to get a copy from the docters without having to see him again, and if so would social security back date the payment are would I have to re apply again.I wish I had photo copied the note now.

Thznkyou

How long have you been sending in sick notes? No one on IB should still be sending in notes, unless you are appealing a decision?

I have been sending them in for about 2yrs now I never used to have to untill I started a job but found I couldn't do it because of my illness so I had a rapid reclaim.

Is it Incapacity Benefit that you are claiming? You mention SDA in other posts?

Regarding getting a copy if needed then yes you can. I once needed this (as it happens I didn't in the end) so just phone the surgery and ask for a copy if it's confirmed that the original has gone missing, there was no mention of cost.
