Hi mm,

It does seem positive, that you have a letter stating that you will be paid "The Support Component", as the only possible scenario for that, is being placed into The SG.

This second letter sounds like a standard letter informing you of the annual increase in benefits from April 2013.

It is highly possible that the department issuing this 2nd letter has not been informed that you have been placed into the SG at reconsideration.

You need to contact one or both of the sources of the letter/s to gain confirmation.

Hi mm,

It may also help if you send a copy of the 1st letter mentioning The Support Component, to the address of the Benefits Office on the 2nd letter, asking them to re-issue a breakdown of your benefit payments, taking into account your award of SG at reconsideration.

I had exactly the same thing happen to me a couple of weeks ago, and I am waiting for clarification. I sent a letter a week ago asking for details, and told them I wished to continue appeal if the second letter stating WRAG payments was correct. I wait with eager anticipation their latest missive.

The confusion never ends.

hi pc thanks for your reply as you say the confusion never ends it is so stressfull hope you get some good news soon i think i will have to do the same eg sent letters again it never ends
