Hi,Before you can request the Tribunal you need to go through the MR process, otherwise the Tribunal will refuse your request.You need to put your request in writing stating what you disagree with and where you think you should have scored those points and your reasons why. Adding 2-3 examples of what happened the last time you attempt that activity for each descriptor that applies to you. You have 1 month from the date of the decision to request this. Good luck.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.

I'm so sorry to hear this @sue76. If you haven't seen it already, Scope's page on DWP appeals may be worth a read, and do feel free to come back to us with any questions.Step 1: Mandatory reconsideration
Contact the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP).- Ask DWP to look at the decision again – this is called a mandatory reconsideration.
- It's best to do this in writing and give reasons why you disagree. The address to write to is on the decision letter you have received.
- You must do this within a month of the date of the original decision.
- You have a month to ask for an appeal if you are still unhappy.
- You must appeal using form SSCS1.
- You must state your reason for the appeal clearly and forward any supporting evidence as soon as possible – do not wait for the hearing.

Going to sort out stuff for MR
Going to get some advice from scope shop in Plymouth for some support xx -
Thanks for your help xx

Hi @sue76, the Scope shop in Plymouth is a charity shop so unfortunately they don't provide this kind of advice or service.
If you're looking for help, I'd recommend searching for your local Citizens Advice instead. They have some great online guidance about the MR process too! -
Ok thanks xx
