Hi j82,
Welcome to Benefits and Work
I am sorry to hear that you have been denied PIP !
Once you receive the PIP Decision Notice letter, if you wish to challenge the decision you will have one month from the date of the Decision Notice to make a written request for a Mandatory Reconsideration. (MR)
Sending Documents to the DWP, ATOS, Capita or Maximus. In anticipation of receiving the letter, you might want to read through the following guidance :
PIP MR/Appeals :
"Guide to PIP appeals" on
This Page Mandatory Reconsiderations Explained &
Disability Rights UK Factsheet - Appeals and Mandatory Reconsiderations. You could also ring PIP and request a copy of The PA4 Medical Report that The PIP Assessor compiled in your assessment.
Once you have an understanding of the process you can return to this topic to pose any further queries that you might have.
