Appeal Bundle

Hi, i am waiting on a decision on my son’s MR which i expect to be turned down and i can see people who have started an appeal talk about a bundle pack. Please can i ask someone to explain what this is so i know if i have to go to appeal! Also is it better to start the appeal online so i can track it or is it better to ask the DWP?
TIA.

The appeal bundle is just another phrase for the appeal papers. These are put together initially by DWP and used by all parties i.e. the tribunal, you, your representative, DWP etc. They consist of a schedule (list) of evidence (the contents of the appeal papers; a submission (justification) from DWP; your claim pack; HCP report; MR application and decision; appeal form and anything else sent in. You can add a submission (summary argument) of your own and anything else as you see fit. However, as the term appeal bundle wasn’t obvious to you I’d strongly suggest you seek advice and representation ASAP.
A very warm welcome.
Just to add to the sound advice on this thread.
You should seek Welfare Rights Advice, in preparation for your appeal.
Try your local council, who should be providing such advice or your local CAB.
Better that someone review’s your bundle, prior to the actual hearing, to remove any road bumps or enhance your position.
Keep us informed, we are here to help.
Stay kind and be safe.
