Any injury or illness caused by service in the armed forces before 6 April 2005 is considered under a different scheme, called the War Pensions Scheme. Not 100% sure about Mental Disorders. Well answer frequently asked questions about the AFCS, including how to claim, what you can claim for, how much compensation you could get and how to appeal. 0 0.000000 CMYK CkZBZQ5HBWViP92KfliCSelINDvQenaFH5p816doXk2XUHN4zLI+oFAUAmkPqH0SQES34F/8rlTt 10.000000 DN6cv1UW0OqMnO9kmnWKGplUxRn02Un4iPT/AMre0y7ijh8mITXflTStUgtdV8q+mqtA90qX0kzG C=90 M=30 Y=95 K=30 PROCESS 0.000000 10.785076 QBqAVUVYedLGzn0y7u/NUt5p1zFNIediEEyxq0vqclAZf3cibKvbcCtMVZHB+YflG51OPTLW99e/ 29.998800 C=25 M=40 Y=65 K=0 Part 1 of the Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Act 2007 (c.15) establishes a new tribunal structure comprising a First-tier Tribunal and an Upper Tribunal.
