not understanding wording in the new table

[bigdan]

Dear Members

I am having trouble understanding the definitions/wording
in the new impairment tables.

Ive had a stroke, and I am effected in different areas. The most
significant being.

brain function.
communication.

Do I need to have at least 20 points in 1 table ?

Or can the points from the seperate tables be added together as they are from the same illness/condition ?

I also have other areas of concern but they would be considered mild but the above 2 areas would be moderate or extreme depending on the JCA.

Please help me to understand.

Many Thanks Daniel

No mate, they consider your two worst disabilities but you must have 20 points in just one.
20 points is classed as a "severe" disability and on paper it's a big ask.

Probably why I missed out mate, when you are as good looking as me people don't realise how crook you are on the inside...

Thanks for the help, im pretty sure I have 20pts in 1 table 30pts on bad days but I am worried to take the UP JCA , chances are you cop some C/L nazi and spend the rest of your days attending bulls**t courses, interviews & waiting in line at C/L to submit your newstart forms.
