Hi,

Dealt with a recent claim to PC that includes the child element.

At first PC did not add the child to the claim, which was revised.

However, the revised decision notice only refers to the claimant? Is that usual?

In this case our client’s PC is her single guaranteed amount of £177.10 which what was stated on the initial decision notice - the amended award notice refers to single gurarnteed amount for you of £242.20 - which is the single amount + child element (177.10 + 65.10)

Do they not seperate out the child element on the award notice, or is this just an error in this case?
