Thank you both for your previous detailed replies.

Thank you too for suggesting I request the PA4 from the spring.

The nurse who telephoned me for the medical assessment recommended some lower levels of award, including the change in how far I can walk (which has resulted in me dropping from enhanced to standard for mobility).

In the past month I had a long arranged appointment with a new consultant (after my old one retired, the reason why I think I had the telephone medical assessment). Her post-appointment letter included a few lines which would be good medical evidence. How and when do I submit this?

I also now have a current report from a new physiotherapist. How and when do I submit this medical evidence?

And finally, does anyone now why the DWP called me yesterday? A lady asked if it was a good time for a quick chat. I honestly told her I wasn’t feeling well and how I’d just told my Mum I needed to go to bed. She implied it would only be a quick chat to check details but agreed as I was ill to ring back on Friday morning.

After my MRN request the DWP decision maker rang me and asked me about my walking when I didn’t know it was going to happen and didn’t have my notes to hand. I did quite well but didn’t give the strongest answer I could have. I wasn’t a member of your forum then!

Best wishes to everyone helping me. :)

Hi Ginger Blue

Any additional evidence should be sent to HMCTS by recorded delivery.

You should have been sent a confirmation letter by HMCTS to say they have received your SSCS1 form with a reference number, use the reference number on any additional information.

When you send any additional supporting information, you will be sent a copy with page numbers on, DWP will also be sent a copy of your additional information.
