Likely but the other problem is the way its set up, one question per page, 6 pages of individual declarations. about 20 or more pages of pass through.



The quickest way to fix the problem is to streamline it as much as possible.


I'm sympathetic as hell that nearly a million people are trying to get onto the site, but frankly this is going to be a nightmare, I'm glad I applied early because I'm worried now about the possible or probable backlog to get benefits rolling.
