Default Disability Living Allowance Update

Right as my last thread was closed due to various reasons. I am just updating for anyone who is genuinly interested.

Nearly 4 years after applying for DLA, my case is now with tribunal. 3 submissions have been sent from my legal advisor and 1 from the DWP. Legal advisor was going to attend but is now unable due to personal reasons and the DWP were going to send a representative but have pulled out.

Judge Jones from the Liverpool Tribunal will now on his own, this month, be making a decision on my claim based on all the facts and evidence before him. My appeal will not be heard before a panel and Judge Jones will be fitting in my case in his schedule this month as a matter of urgency.

So just a matter of waiting now.

Update. Claim for DLA has been seen by Judge Jones at Tribunal. Received email last week advising that I will receive notification by end of October, so am expecting a letter next week.

i'll wish you well CC, but at the same time, I would caution against alienating those could help you. You abused those who asked clarification of your circumstances(myself included), last time you posted. That, under any circumstances,does not endear you to anyone.

I constantly fail to understand why a human, who has better "reason ablity" than a wild animal would launch an attack on someone , who just asks for a reasonable explanation of circumstances would come back here and expect us "give smypathy"....would you like to explain that?

Thank you for your post. I will be posting the result as a private message to certain members who have been interested and helpful in my 4 year fight with the DWP and hope my information/result that I will give will help them directly.

I am not asking for "sympathy". When you say I have "abused" those who have asked for clarification. In my defence I am only repy to with retaliation to those who live in the "UK Bubble" and do not believe/understand that those British Citizens who live elsewhere in the EEU should even dare to apply for UK Benefits.

Please take time to read through my posts and (some) of the replies that I received and I am sure you would not be happy. Although I do not know if you can as I asked for my post to be closed.

I have been asked to participate in the EU Summitt in Brussels to tell my story, which I may do.

You told us that with your condition travelling to the UK to defend your case was impossible, and yet you are considering going to Brussels to participate in a summit, and supposedly have to make 2 long journeys back to back.

I am not travelling anywhere, see here we go again, just assuming. I am to write in with my story. Why do you attack before you have the facts?

See what I mean typical response for JLS or whatever the name was. The same people always jump to their own conclusions.
Close my thread, the appropriate people will be notified of my outcome. The moderators on this site are so bloody biased and clicky with certain posters. Actually I was told this by the last poster in a Private message and was told that you are always on the side of certain people.

Do what you will and let those that needed my outcome stay in the dark. be proud of yourself.
