Previous PIP decision. was created by OUTLANDER
Hi All,
I have recently received a copy of my report for PIP from 2017.
Going through the report I am concerned that evidence was not taken into account by the HP - is their a time limit to challenge the descriptor choice that they made on a couple of activities?

Hi Pamela
Unless there has been a change in the law, you cannot challenge a report that is four years old. You have one month to ask for a mandatory reconsideration and up to one year to put in for a late MR - which the DWP can choose to accept or deny.

Hi,
Is the one month for mandatory reconsideration from the date of the decision letter or the date it arrives?

HI Pamela,
I have always taken it as a month from the date of the letter. However, the rule is that you if you submit a MR within that month they have to consider. They have the flexibility to extend that to 13 months if you can present them with a good reason for being late. I have never known them to refuse to extend the time.
