Thread: Benefits Joint Info.

Thanks for that DMG. I'm ok with paying a fee, if it helps sort out my affairs. I spoke to the council, who said they had a new computer system in 2005, but I was sure they would have prior to that on microfiche (sp?) I've sent in a request by email, so I'm just itching to get things moving. Regards Munchie

They would need to keep records in some form prior to that for audit purposes, so they must have them somewhere! It may be worth having a look on the LA's website for their SAR form. If you ask one of their front line staff for it, don't be surprised if they don't know what you mean. Also, make sure you get a SAR form and not a Freedom of Information form - they are for different things.

They will have the information. We have records back to 2000 avaliable to view. Anything prior to that is archived but can be accessed.
