Have just been told via the phone, that I've been placed in the support group for three years. Have just come off the forum a while ago after taking advice from Gordon to phone the DWP and they were working on my case as I spoke with them. Cannot thank benefits and work enough for all their support and invaluable guides, you all do a sterling job, and I would like to thank you so much. Hope this gives encouragement to others who are playing 'the waiting game' that there can be light at the end of the tunnel.
