    Contact your GP he/she may have copies of the letters if you were admitted to hospital. If the letters state how your conditions affect you then they'll be useful as evidence. You'll be able to send them to HMCTS, either when you send the SSCS1 form or at a later date if you can't get them in time. Remember the 28 day deadline for the SSCS1 form.

    As the decision on the MR has already been made then it's too late for this stage now.
    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.

    Yes, appeal as in Tribunal? I see by the comments above that the MR decision remained the same so you're at Tribunal stage.

    Your local MP won't be able to help your claim for PIP. PIP is about how your conditions affect your ability to carry out daily activities against the PIP descriptors. You have to prove those descriptors apply to you with evidence to support your claim.

    I don't advise re applying for PIP because doing this and using the exact same evidence you used for this claim will most likely see another refusal, especially so soon after being refused.

    You need to request the Tribunal and stay with this claim. Get evidence that states how your conditions affect you and send that to HMCTS.

    I'd also advise getting some help with this and contact welfare rights or another advice centre in your area.

    MPs can help, with cutting through some of the red tape/computer says no stuff.  I'd keep the appointment.  But Poppy is right in that a welfare rights advisor would be more use for the appeal.

    If you've been refused then your MP can't help you qualify for an award.

    If you mentioned all of your conditions in the form when you filled it out then my advice still stands about taking it to Tribunal and not starting a new claim. You've had the MR decision letter which didn't change the decision so now it's Tribunal.

    Did you send any evidence at all to support your claim? It's you responsibility to send the evidence to prove those descriptors apply and not their responsibility to prove you qualify.
