How to appeal pip and sscs1 form

How do I lodge and appeal and where do I get a sscs1 form??

Hi Malcolm,

Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explains where everything is

Welcome to Benefits and Work

There is a link to the SSCS1 here

www.gov.uk/social-security-child-support...unal/appeal-tribunal

and the appeal process, along with the criteria against which you are being assessed is explained in our PIP guide

PIP help for claimants

You do not have to include a lot of information in order to submit the appeal request. Leave that until after you have received the evidence 'bundle' from DWP (this will include all the paperwork they hold associated with your claim) and you can then rebut their arguments.

The Tribunal panel will be more interested in hearing from you about how your condition/s affect your ability to carry out the activities linked to the PIP descriptors. They will be less interested in the assessor's report.

If you have further questions after you have read the PIP guide, we will do our best to help.

May I suggest that you bookmark/favourite this on your web browser now so that you can find it easily in future? This will allow you to return with further questions or comments about your PIP without having to start a new topic each time. We ask members to keep everything relating to the same claim in one topic as it helps us enormously - and I hope you will find it useful too

Hi, Thank you for your response.. Do I have to contact DWP to lodge an appeal as the mandatory reconsideration letter says all i need to do is send information to the appeals dept. at and address in Bradford.. no mention of an sscs1 form or sending me an 'evidence bundle' How do i get that?

Ho Gordon, I have the links and will follow them but I was wondering why the dwp didn't say anything about that form or the evidence being sent to me? seems they don't tell people exactly what to do or am I missing something? Sorry for the questions.. it is just so frustrating
