Wingus You have just advised a poster to comit benefit fraud on the DLA claim by faking depression ( or have I misread your advice?) I hope I have!! just to say if you faked depression on your claim/appeal then I'm sure there will be a knock on your door very soon. You may not know this but FIS of the DWP read the messages on here daily and action anything suspect. To the poster of the original question by all means appeal your decision but please don't lie or be tempted to comit fraud, just be honest and you will get what you deserve

Hi Jon I have just posted an update about my case on DLA Overpayment, I have been summoned to court next month under the Social Security act 112(1A) you seem to know alot about these cases and I was wondering if you may be able to help me ? I know it maybe long winded to go into detail here but if possible could you contact me direct if so I will give you my email or phone number ....Look forward to your reply just as a footnote there is a twist to this case that I cannot go into in public..... Best regards Paul

Hi DCG Just an update I got a summons to attened the Magistrates Court on the 11/April/207 to face a charge under section 112 (1A) of the Social Security Administration Act 1992 mainly that between 11 October 2006 and 09 October 2007 at my home address that I the defendant with a view to obtaining for himself Disability Living Allowence failed to notify a change in circumstances whicj was required to notify,namely that his capabilities and mobility had increased contrary to the section. The date they are going back too is based not on medical evidence as I have a letter from my GP stating that in the last 10 years there has been no improvement or is there likely to be no improvement in the future. But on the evidence of someone who hardly knows me only by sight, that they "Saw me about a year ago shopping and I looked as if I wasn't in pain" the shopping by the way was a newspaper (The Sun) so from start to finish this has taken 5 months from Interview under caution to a summons....Any advice ? Have you had any progress on your claim to DLA ? also as a foot note my medacation has been increased for the pain I'm in since losing my car and having to travel to work on public transport this journey now takes over 1 hour so I have to take stronger Morphine Sulthate and of course the effects that has on me .... Best regards to all Paul

my pleasure

No just on here I really do need some serious advice if you can help i would be most greatful Paul

The industrial action was only 2 days so no excuse ask for Leigh Lewis the chief exec of the DWP and be stuborn ok ....... good luck

it was all hand held video

???????? and your reply means exactly ?

Not at all I had a Benefits doctor come to my home and he agreed that I should get DLA High rate mobility also my own GP and hospital consultant agreed I was awarded the DLA in 1995 I have been in my job since 2001 as I under the impression you are allowed to work while getting DLA, just as a after note since my DLA was stopped my condition as deterated and is starting to effect my Attendance at work, I am also back on Morphine Sulphate for pain a strong pain killer I was able to come off some time ago but now I am back on a high dose and in constant pain ... So if any thing the DWP are proberly going to be responsible for me having to stop work, paying taxes national insurance. I will then of course have to claim Incapacity Benefit or the new ESA allowence and of course become a burden on the tax paying people of the UK ... So who is the winner ?

Hi Joa Thank you for the reply I have seen the CAB and there dealing with the overpayment, but as for legal advice No I did seek advice and take a solictor with me to the interview under caution in October 2007 but he just sat there and said nothing and his advice to me afterwards was "Wait and see what happens" and as to date I still don't know what if any action by DWP Fraud are to take is this normal to wait so long before they decide if to take action ? Thanks again

Just the normal thing I have the right to appeal, and to supply any new evidence to support the appeal, but I'm stuck as still do not know what follow up the DWP are to do apart from the overpayment. Has any one else bee in this situation ? thanks for the reply

Hi all Wonder if anyone can help, I was informed in October 2007 that I was to be interviewed under caution by the DWP for not informing them to a change in circumstances. I had been recieving DLA Mobility High rate since 1995, and used the DLA to get a car on the Motability scheme. I was interviewed by DWP Fraud investigators and shown a witness statement taken from my Line Manager who was asked basic questions about me ie my work pattern and duties. I am a line manager and my job is clerical, I walk very short distances around the office. I was also shown a video taken of me at my place of work, this video shows me leaving the building to go for a "fag break" again a short distance. Also on the video it showed me on a shopping trip with my sons into the city, they claimed I walked about 2 miles or about 2 hours without a break. However the video was edited in fact the total lenth of the video is 55 mins. After the interview i was informed in the December 2007 that my DLA was stopped and the overpayment was to go back to October 2006 on the evidence of another witness who claims to have seen me shopping in a local supermarket about a year ago !! I am still waiting to hear from the DWP of any other action ie Criminal action, caution, the interview was some 5 months ago now. Any advice/comments would be most welcomed. Sorry its a bit long winded.........Pauld56
