    Hi,

    You say you have the report but have you had the decision? Is this for PIP, if so have you added up those points at the beginning of the report? There should be boxes with dots next to them, you need to compare the PIP descriptors with those dots to see what you scored for daily living and then mobility.

    Once you have the decision then you'll have 28 days to ask for a Mandatory Reconsideration. You'll need to put the request in writing stating what you disagree with.
    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.

    Been there too. I went to a Tribunal for my wife many years ago, and one of the questions that the doctor asked me was "what would you do if your wife's pain was not being controlled". I replied that I would give her some of my Oramorph as I would not be able to stand seeing her in that condition".

    Obviously the appeal was denied, but the judge's ruling when she received it said amongst many things about me that she was married to a drug dealer!.

    I did complain to atos and in there reply it said the examiner has nothing to gain by lying and they cannot coment and what was said was between the examiner and myself I even offered to take a lie detector test to prove what I said was true and asked if the examiner would take one hence I never recieved another reply
