Sorry Jim,
I get LRC, never give it a thought that they would want to check/change that.
Thanks for that. (fingers crossed)

Hi,

The more I read about this case,the more its starting to sound just like my own. Ten years on HRM and MRC, then out of the blue, a request to 'see if I am on the right benefits' from the W&P. Filled the big form in,then the request of a home visit ATOS medical,followed by a final letter 'asking for more information' from both my GP,and my Orthorpedic Surgeon.

I wonder if it is the same scenario ?



Either way,good luck.

Hi. Just wondering if you received your outcome yet? It does seem the same scenario. Today I have been informed that they are requesting further evidence from my GP and they will decide from that information whether or not I will have to have a medical as I was unable to attend the last medical date they gave me. Keep me informed and good luck.
