every year for the 5 years ive so far been signed off under mental health i have filled in pip paperwork, and just recently i was told after being diagnosed with autism and aspergers at the age of 39 and also due to the fact i was classed by universal credit work capability assesment as being unsuitable for work or work related activities so was allowed extrs universal credit payments and they at universal credit and the job centre and citezans advice told me to re apply for pip, it came back saying ive scored ZERO points, so sent it back for reveiw as ive been classified as being uncapable of wrk or work relaed activies and no longer have to even attend the job centre for 12-18 months and given extra universal credit payments they still returned it for the 2nd time as being scored at zero points, totally wrong and messed up

PIP and LCWRA are 2 completely different benefits, with different criteria. Being found to have LCWRA doesn’t automatically entitle you to PIP ( I’m not saying you’re not entitled to it)
LCWRA is about your ability to work but PIP isn’t.
Its not unusual for the MR decision not to change because most don’t.You now have 1 month to request the Tribunal. All you need to do for now is to give a brief reason why you disagree with the decision, the rest can be done later.I’d advise you to get some expert advice from an agency near you.

You should familiarise yourself with the PIP scoring system.
The full guidance on how PIP is assessed is available here.
