Hi Gorden. Thank you very much for your message. I have spoken to the DWP and they have said that they would send out a letter to let me know if my existing claim will be extended nearer the time it ends. In the mean time just to send my new claim form back.
I wanted to find out if I did have my exsisting claim extended would I not need to send the new form back and wait for the extention and reapply and fill out a new form nearer the time? But I did not get a clear answer so not really any the wiser. I will give them a call again and see if anyone eles can anser the question. Thank you again for your help. Kind regards,
