Hi @tracyj59 sorry to hear you were unsuccessful with the MR, it's usually the case unfortunately.
We have lots of info and links regarding tribunals here for you to browse and CAB have plenty here too.
It's totally ok to fill it all in yourself if you want to, the key is to show which descriptors apply to you and give them real world examples where possible. To start with though, you just need to say you disagree with the DWPs outcome.1 -
Is it better to put tribunal in online or shall I print it off and send it in written as I done a mr over the phone and feel that was wrong I should of wrote it all down0

Online will be fine as this is how many other members request it now.submit-appeal0

Thanks do you have to submit all reasons now why I want tribunal or can I do that at later date I need to write it all out or shall I just submit it. I haven’t got anyone to help me yet with this can I always add someone or do I need that information now
thank you0 -
You should just give brief reasons why you disagree with the decision. You don't need to send anything that you've already sent because DWP will send all of that once they respond. If you do have anything extra to send that you can do that at a later date.0

Thank you for your help I’m so worried about this and your advice is appreciated
thanks1 -
Hi tracyj59, I think we are in the same boat. We didn’t get that successful text so we are expecting a refusal letter in the post. It is so dis heartening.1

Hi anno it’s so disheartening I’m goin to tribunal havnt sent it off yet need to write it all out and just hope for the best so annoying when genuinely have to fight when living with illness I got 7 points at daily living and 4 at mobility feel should of scored well more it’s just I didn’t write enough I don’t think or explain it so good will try do better with tribunal hope urs goes ok are you goin to tribunal I believe the wait time is anything Upto 12 months !2

Sorry meant to say when I rang up about my mandatory decision they told me over the phone so maybe yours might be good news they said to my decision remained the same I received letter week later and it was just the same so disappointing2

Tracyj59, we was awarded 2 points. It’s crazy how they only awarded us two points. And I feel that the m.r will not have read anything from our part, only what their own people have written. I am pretty confident that if this goes to a tribunal, that we would win. Because my mum is ill. it’s just dragging this all out, and at the same time, we have other family issues (dementia) so our attention is being pulled in all directions. I didn’t know it was a 12 month wait, thanks for letting me know. I might start a new post to see how long wait times are by location. I’m in the London area. I will wait for that letter. I’ll let you & this board know, because I was reading these boards a long time before my first post. Thanks for replying, and I wish you the best of luck.1
