Hello @Mummyto2 Pleased to meet you welcome.

Thank you for joining and sharing.

Have a look at our PIP information and advice . A member of community or team will be able to answer.

We are a supportive community. Care and share.

Lots of information, advice.  Benefits can be complex and confusing.

Consider speaking to CAB  for anything regarding benefits.  Always useful.

Hope that helps.

Take care

M R 'S have a low success rate and can take up to 8 weeks to get a decision and if you have to go to tribunal a year wait is not unusual

It's about 17% success rate for MR.

If you go through MR and are unsuccessful you may be able to go to tribunal appeal and we have lots of information and support around that.

We have some videos that might help too
