Hi as the title says received a text 4 hours after my f2f to say they have received my report is this good or bad. Also I rang to ask for a copy and was told they are no longer to take requests over the phone and had to write in and ask.

Hi @Tilly1, and a warm welcome to the community! Hopefully some of our members will be along to answer your queries shortly.0

A few questions to be asked. From whom did you receive the text message. Was it the DWP? Secondly, was it the DWP who told you that copies of the assessment were only provided by written request? Thirdly, do you know which company the assessor represented, was it CAPITA or ATOS? Fourthly, did you call the DWP or the assessor company. I only ask, because four hours for a report to be received by DWP is exceptionally fast. Secondly, you may ask for a copy of the assessors report when you receive the DWP's decision on the report, and that can be by a telephone call. You only have 28 days to request an MR, so a postal request for a copy of the assessor's report will cut that time considerably. Get back to the forum with the answers and I am sure you will receive the support you require. Good luck1

Thanks Poppy
As soon as I get my report I will start the MR they had all of my support documents hospital appointments consultants letters scans everything will be Interesting to see.0 -
Future hospital appointment dates/times are not classed as evidence because they don't prove anything how your conditions affect you.

They where all previous appointments that I sent going back 3 years to June this year applied for pip in July.0

This is very true, will have wait and see when I get my report and see why they can't give me the award.
When I apply for the MR I will send in new evidence.
Than you for your reply.0 -

I received my report this morning 2 B's on daily living and 0 for moving around she has put that I can walk 200 metres majority of days I didn't seem breathless walking 3 metres when I left the room to waiting room chair was not observed to be breathless after sitting and standing 3 times all lies. I was breathless through out. I rang this morning they are resenting decsion letter out.0

For the MR request letter then you should concentrate on where you think you should have scored those points and why. Avoid mentioning any lies that may have been told in the report, DWP and Tribunal won't be interested in any of those. Good luck.

@poppy123456 Thank you again for your reply. In a previous post you mentioned evidence or a letter other than myself from people that know me well would that include my husband or would that be to close to home so to speak.
I'm guessing also the medical assessment for my esa is along the same lines.this is all new to me so I apologise for all the questions.0 -

Your husband should have the PIP descriptors next to him when writing the letter detailing how your conditions affect you. Give at least 2 examples of the difficulties you have for each of the descriptors that apply.For example, if you can't prepare a meal because of the danger to yourself, explain what happens... if you've forgotten something that's on the hob, cut yourself, burnt yourself because of lack of concentration then explain this. You should do this for each descriptor that applies but keep it simple and don't drag it out into pages and pages of writing.A letter like this will carry more weight than a letter from a GP that knows nothing about how your conditions affect you. You don't need medical evidence for a successful PIP claim, unless it's from a learning disabilities team that specifically details your conditions and how they affect you. Good luck.0 -
MR sent in 4 weeks ago just been told it is with case manager and could still be another 2 to 3 weeks!0

There's no timescales to any decision. Hopefully not much longer.

Rang Dwp to see if any decision had been made on my Mandatory Reconsideration and was told the case manager has asked for further information from the assessment centre and not necessarily from the assessed as they are not medical trained. Any thoughts please.0
