My PIP Claim has been denied, but I feel that this is unfair and that I should be getting PIP, how do I go through mandatory reconsideration successfully?

Your best bet is to look at the descriptors where you have scored no points but think you should have, giving examples of when you tired to do it and why you couldn't.

Hi and welcome
For the mr go through each descriptor you feel you should have scored more points and give at least 2 real examples of what happened when you tried to do that task
Can you do task if not why not , do you need any support or aids to do it, can you do it safely reliably and repeatedly, what is the outcome if you try do it
Any relevant evidence like a statement from someone who sees you on a daily basis and possibly make a diary of daily living for a few days
Good luck let us know how you get on
