If you're receiving a war pension then you should be on a medical pension? in which case it should be tax free so it sounds like payment kept to cover esa, or they have screwed up.

At least you got it sorted.

only if they make it tax free at the start or change it to tax free in the future and then pay me back all the tax paid to date.

ok stupid question perhaps, i received my WP notice in october telling me the start date for payments was 27/01/12 and that backpay would arrive 27/12/11 the backpay was late by more than 2 weeks but now the actual pension payment hasnt gone in, despite the revised letter in early jan stating the monies i received were for the backpay less deductions up to the original date + the few days of lateness and i would receive monthly payments as advised previously

now its the 30/1/12 and still no hint of hte monthly payment, does this mean its also delayed by the same ammount or does it mean there just oging ot start paying a month later and give me the extra 3 weeks then ? i kow its late and no doubt i'll receive another letter sometime in the next 4 weeks but its annoying me and i cant ring them up for another few days owing to other appointments

edit

never mind it seems they changed the payment date....

Hi All,

Can someone please advise me how to turn a War Pension application form from an adobe file into a word document or something that can be completed electronically on a computer? I'm currently assisting someone with notoriously bad handwritting & want to avoid any probs/delays in sending his file to SPVA. He has made a similar request to SPVA by email but has yet to receive their reply.

This relates to the period 1975-2005 (1981).

Sorry to hijack the thread, it didn't seem appropriate to open a new one for such a trivial affair

just write it out for them and have them sign the declaration .....

Not a good idea because my writting is equally bad, furthermore I hope to avoid scanning all those pages lol.

Thanks for the reply

There are .pdf file to Word converters out there, the best and reliable ones you have to pay for or take on trial. There was something called Nitro, which I believe allows you to sign PDF documents. Most of those I've just downloaded and tested were reported as "unsafe" by Mcaffee.

Try copy and paste, (select all) in the PDF document and then paste in to Word, followed by a bit of a post formatting.

I sometimes despair.

SPVA are the only ones who can tell you.

Fingers and Tremaine, my office.

Shan't. Busy. Bodging a PDF.
