At Last - MR Decision was created by Lynno1981
Hello
After last week’s discovery that my husband’s MR request had not been looked at due to being incorrectly logged on the system. We received a telephone call from DWP on Friday, my husband was not available for the call so they spoke with me as I’m down as his representative, 10 minute call to go over the same info we had previously submitted! They are changing their decision and awarding Enhanced for Daily Living. The reason we asked for this is my husband’s conditions have changed and he now needs assistance/support rather than being able to use an aid. I’m not sure if they have agreed with all the challenges but he previously scored 10 points. We are just relieved that after 11 months this is now sorted. Thank you all for the support and guidance papers I used the MR suggested template which helped so much to keep to the facts. Just waiting on the letter now confirming everything then we can eventually stop thinking about it.
Please pass on our thanks to the team. Lynno

Hi Lynno,
WOW! Congratulations after such a mega wait! I think I always knew you would get there but never expected it to drag on for so long.
It's nearly four months since my result and to think we were seemingly neck and neck at one point.
Anyway, you can both relax now and forget about it.
All the best,
Kind regards,
Phrank.
