- Heading
- The decision of the Upper Tribunal is to dismiss the appeal. The decision of the First-tier Tribunal did not involve an error of law
- Background
- Mr W’s PIP award
- Mrs W’s new claim for carer’s allowance
- The FTT’s case management
- The challenged FTT decision
- The Upper Tribunal proceedings
- Other case management by the Upper Tribunal
- Why I have concluded that there was no material error of law in the challenged FTT decision
- First main issue: should Mrs W’s new carer’s allowance award have been “backdated” to the start of Mr W’s PIP award?
- Was the FTT’s decision on Mr W’s PIP appeal a decision on appeal awarding a qualifying benefit ?
- Was Mrs W’s carer’s allowance claim made “within three months of” the FTT’s decision on Mr W’s PIP appeal?
- Second main issue: did the Respondent undertake “mandatory reconsideration” of its decision on Mrs W’s new carer’s allowance claim?
- Other issues raised by Mrs W
- Conclusions
