So as is typical left completing the defence to the last date. (Submitted my AOS 19/7/25)
Issue Date 9/7/25 Today 6/8/25 is 28 days. I think I have 28 or 30 or 33. 

So using my Government Gateway I can't find the case online.
I submit the Claim Number and password but it is telling me there is an error. 

Mistaking 0 for O or 1 for I or l (lower case) for L sometimes does it. The calculation for working out your defence submission date is on the reverse of the N1SDT form

Yes...we know the email addresses. We already provide them in the Template Defence thread.

You won't be using a form. Until last month we always emailed defences aa an attached (signed & dated) PDF, so this is normal stuff found on the forum.

The issue you have is you can't just send some words in an email: you must create a word doc, add the claim details headers and the Statement of Truth, signature and date at the bottom. All those headers and footers are required if emailing it (as a PDF). I bet they didn't explain that.

To see examples of the headers and Statement of Truth, look at defences from the first 6 months of this year, or from 2024. Posted thousands of times here in the past decade.

Wouldn't it be easier to ensure that I didn't miss anything if I submit their form with additional pages for the defence? That is what the helpline did tell me I could do.

Thanks again.
