Pip tribunal advice

London2020001

Hello, I need some advice on doing a appeal to the tribunal, I applied for pip and was awarded standard daily living, and 4 points for mobility (so no award) applied for a Mandatory Reconsideration, award remained the same, (no surprises there) I now want to go through to tribunal as I do believe I should be entitled to mobility aswell.
My question is do I need to submit further information as I submitted further/extra information at the Mandatory Reconsideration stage, and to be honest I don't have any extra or new information to submit, and will this go against me if I don't have new/extra information?
Just a bit lost as to were to start with the appeal to be honest .

You don’t need to provide extra information. The tribunal will review all the information you have already submitted.

if you haven’t made it clear in your MR it will assist the tribunal to simply spell out which descriptors you with and which you are disputing and what point score you should get.

Thank you @calcotti for your reply, I did at the Mandatory Reconsideration stage go through all the descriptors out lining how and why I would qualify for each descriptor and the total of points I would then be entitled to, with a lengthy supporting letter.
hence my question, ..what more can I do, I really do think I've covered it all in my mandatory consideration. But wasn't sure if this would go against me, sorry to babble on, I'm just drained from all of this

As per my previous reply that is not need to submit something just for the sake of it. Tribunals have limited time to carry out their work and simply repeating stuff isn’t helpful.

When you get the tribunal ‘bundle’ from the tribunal you may be able to help the tribunal with a simple statement that says something like
my initial PIP2 submission is contained in the bundle at pages x to y, my submission to DWP in respect of my MR is contained at pages a to b. Additional supporting evidence is on pages c to d.
I believe the information I have already submitted supports an award of PIP with the Daily Living and Mobility component based on a point score of
x points for activity a
y points for activity b
etc

(Note that the tribunal may not look at all the activities. If the reach 12 points such that an enhanced rate is reached they may stop looking at outstanding descriptors for that component.)
