My full name is showing, how can I stop it?
In principle, you can but it may depend on why your previous claim failed.
If you were found Fit for Work then a new claim can only be made if you can show a deterioration of your original conditions or a new condition which are likely to result in an award.
A new claim will require you to meet the Contribution Conditions again, if your previous claim was last year then the Tax Years will have changed to 2016-17 and 2017-18
