HELP!!
You can request a Paper hearing that you do not need to attend, it's an option on the SSCS1, be aware that these tend not to be as successful as appeals you attend but if your going to the hearing would argue against your meeting some of the criteria then you should stick with the Paper hearing.
Also, as the hearings are scheduled as they can be you will need to make sure that any submission that you create for the appeal is with the Tribunal Service no later than one month from the letter accompanying the DWP's submission which you will receive a copy of.
The PIP Appeal guide has links to the SSCS1 form that you will need to complete and the Submissions guide has a complete example that you can use to help you fill it in, you do not need to provide detailed reasons at this stage for your request.
