From DLA to PIP - sending tribunal form

Hiya everyone - my son has had DLA for the last 14 years - (he's 17 in 5 months) and I was told in Aug 2017 to apply for PIP instead, as his award was being reviewed. ASOS assessor scored him 0 (zero) for everything and PIP application was turned down. 

Mandatory review was also turned down and I have to send tribunal form by 9th Feb, their decision letter took a week to get to me, leaving 18 days and I have waited 10 days to speak to our GP so time is short!! lol

Anyway,  could someone please tell me (apart from MR decision letter) what else I need to send with the letter SSCS1? - can I send other documents as evidence (photocopies) proving that the assessor was inaccurate as well as my sons medical appointment letters and so on?  or do I send them later or take them to the appeal - unsure thanks for any help.
