Your Situation

Tell us which UK nation administers your PIP, the date on your decision letter, and what was decided.

Your letter will request a Mandatory Reconsideration under s.9 SSA 1998, frame the descriptor disputes against the reg.4(2A) reliability test (safely, to an acceptable standard, repeatedly, and within a reasonable time period) and the reg.7 more-than-50%-of-days rule, and preserve your right of appeal to the First-tier Tribunal under TCEA 2007 s.11.
