    I do not advise you to start another claim. It's MR first then Tribunal after. Starting another claim is not the answer because using the same evidence you previously used will most likely see another refusal. Continue with the MR/Tribunal.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Have you received the decision letter ?
    Have you requested a mandatory  reconsideration ?
    This you must do before you can appeal to the tribunal

    Be all you can be, make  every day count. Namaste

    I have found that the CAB are not that good. In fact they seem to want people to not want to ask for help.
    I went years ago (2013) for the first and last time. I saw someone who was only interested in registering me and asking what I wanted from them. After that meeting I was told that someone would be in touch with another appointment. They never did get back to me and as I was on a time limit to send a form (PIP2)off to the DWP I had to try and do it myself with disastrous consequences.

    What other problems didnt you tell them about? The list of all your current medication isn't going to help your PIP claim. What you need is evidence that states how your conditions affect you.
