Hi I have done a MR just waiting now but I have two questions if your successful ( I know the rate is low in Mr) do u still receive the text and also if successful do they backdate to when you put the claim in or from original decision I only scored 6 point and 0 on mobility in original decision

Sometimes they send a text if successfully awarded with MR especially if this is your first time claim. If it's a first time claim and you didn't transfer from DLA then you'll be owed money from the date you rang to start your claim.

How are you feeling about the wait @annie4? Please don't hesitate to let us know if there's anything we can do to support you

I'm not too bad just feel like the wait takes forever but I feel like I supplied as much info as I could I gave examples for each descriptor I disagreed with and also send further info reports from physio and results from neurologist and also a report from iapt don't feel like I could have done any better it just annoys me that it said was considered for higher descriptor but dosent have this or dosent have that but I've now provided proof I do have these things . I scored 6 on living and zero on mobility deffinantly should have scored at least 4/6 more points a living and alot more on mobility but will have to wait and see. I've prepared myself that it won't change and so I will have to go to tribunal

Hi, have you heard anything back from your Mr? I have also submitted one, I received a text saying they had until the 11/04 to make a decision. That was send on the 01/03, the waiting kills you doesn't it! I also scored 6 for living and 4 for mobility, I should have at least the 8 points required for daily living.

No nothing I had a text on Tuesday saying they have until the 26th April to make a decision the wait is killing me
