    Yes you can, when I won my esa tribunal I was still waiting over six weeks later for my back payment. When I phoned to see how much longer it would be they asked me to send a copy in as they said they hadn't heard and I got my back payment within a few days.

    They shouldn't have done because you could doctor your own photocopy to suit you.

    Twice I,ve sent in a photocopy of the Tribunal decision and each time I've only waited 3 weeks for my backpay to be sorted. They obviously get the original decision fax or emailed by the tribunal immediately so they would know if your photocopy is doctored. However, if you send a copy by registered post, they then can't blame "the post" fir the tribunal nitice to have nit reached them. I would advise to always send a copy.

    Think about what yu are saying...

    If they had an original communication direct from tribunal they would not need a copy of yours.
