I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

SAP

Just some notes on the SAP.

1. The award is back dated to the date you apply.

2. If less than a full award you may request a reassessment. The date of any increased award is back dated to the date of your request for reassessment.

3. When you request a reassessment you have just 3 months to submit that paper work, ie if you request on 1 Feb the paper must be back with the SVA by 1 May when para 2 will apply.

When you go for a reassessment take your other half with you. You will be asked how your disability has got worse. You will have forgotten, or not noticed, many things that you can no longer do. Your other half can prompt and fill in the gaps.
