    Hi @sandwich. Congratulations on the successful mandatory reconsideration! It should be backdated to the date of the original decision. :)

    @sandwich. Hi so glad for you that the decision was overturned at MR Iv heard it doesn’t happen often, it’s gave me a bit of hope as I’m currently waiting to hear the outcome of my MR take care ?

    Hi @sandwich - Congratulations from me too. Only about 15-16% of MRs are successful, but it does happen. My award was also increased with a MR. Fingers crossed for you too @Lou67 :)

    Hi@chiarieds. Oh thank you, I know it’s not a high percentage that wins at MR but it’s nice to hear from the ones that do ?
