I have missed the month deadline for mandatory reconsideration for PIP and I don't know what to do ? The date was for the 20th December 2017 and the report was full of lies, I only got 2 points . I had an ESA assessment at about the same time and have been told I am in a Support group. I am so confused about it all . The whole situation is so embarrassing and makes me feel worse .

Hi gran2lillah and welcome
There is no reason for you to feel embassed, many people are in the same situation, but you have found our community and we will do all we can to help.
You should still request an MR as they may accept good reason for being late.
If they refuse then there is still a route to appeal to the tribunal
It is important to address the inaccuracies of the HCP report but you will only score the points you deserve by showing that you meet the criteria. A good place to start to understand the sysytem is the B&W self test
