    Hi @Marymc123, welcome to the community.

    Have you gone through the mandatory reconsideration and appeal steps already? Are you trying to make a new claim?

    You can take a PIP self-test to see what points your grandson might meet, so that you have an idea of what to focus on in a PIP application or appeal. It might also be useful to get some face to face help - your local citizen's advice may be able to help.

    When did you receive the result for the mandatory reconsideration, @Marymc123?

    You have a month after a mandatory reconsideration to ask for an appeal,(although you can still apply for one if you're late, you will just have to explain why) and you can do this in writing with an SSC1 form.

    We have a lot of useful information about appealing a DWP benefits decision on our website, including some resources on tribunals. You may find the following videos of interest:

    I think you're supposed to have access to a printer, i just used the above link to the form and it says >Print form >Reset form at the top and it says something at the top of my browser about the filling of form fields is not supported. I use win10 and that's the best one to use so i doubt it's my browser. But reset form implies you should be able to fill it in and also reset it if you need to?
