Again I was too ill so couldnt write to them and in paralellel the esa questionair got sent out and I had to work on that as well as my PIP form which was more priority. I was automatically moved to esa SG as a result of esa questionaire in March 2015. Now that its been over a year since I notified them by telephone of the coc is it too late to send the coc letter in hoping for it to get backdate March 2015 backwards all the way back to earlier years?

Thanks


Yes, it's too late.

hi gordan is there a stated rule where i cannot backdate e.g. someone must write within one month of the coc telephone notice? i remember when i contacted then they said you can send the letter at any time but then they gave me the wrong information as they have many times before.

thanks

The normal notification time is 30 days, I can see no realistic prospect of your being able to backdate it by three years.

Sorry did you mean that from the date of the coc phone call, you have 30 days in which to submit your coc letter otherwise it's considered too late?

I didn't say I wanted to backdate by 3 years rather between 3 months - 2 years or so. Since I notified them(coc phone call) in janary 2015 and moved to support group(due to new assessent not coc as I hadn't written a letter yet) in April 2015, I was hoping if I wrote now I could 'at least' get Januray 2015 to March 2015 backdated because I made the call and the evidence is strong. Or is that even those 3 months are unlikely to get backdated now? Thanks

It is 30 days from when the change occurred.

You had an opportunity to notify them of the change when you received the new ESA50 last year, that might have meant the SG award was backdated to the date of the letter, but due to your illness you were unable to do this (perfectly good reason), unfortunately you cannot retrospectively report a Change.
