I'm having a row with our local JC+ BDC and just wanted confirmation that I'm in the right before I get even hotter under the collar! Plus I have several other cases of the same thing occurring.
Client was claiming IS paid as sick/IB credits only. Claim ended due to failure to attend a medical, appeal submitted as can argue good cause.
Client reclaims immediately and is awarded cbESA.
BDC have sent a letter saying they have applied the relevant sections of the ESA Transitional Regs but when I read the same regs it appears that her claim should have been treated as a claim for IB/IS as it is linked.
Have I gone wrong somewhere?
