asking for a reconcideration?

hi everyone ive just received a letter telling me iam to
be put in the wra group.i would like this looked at again
as they have not seen my esa50 or a supporting letter
from my gp.whats the best way of going about this please

thanks

You can just write and ask for a reconsideration. However, we tend to recommend that members go straight to appeal as this saves time in the long-run. There should be an appeal form, GL24, in with the decision letter and this must be submitted within 4 weeks of the date on the letter.

How long do I have to appeal?

How to submit an appeal

It would be helpful to request the paperwork associated with your claim, I don't know what there will be if you did not submit an ESA50 though. It is important to get your appeal submitted in time rather than waiting for this to arrive. You don't have to go into detail at this stage although the thrust of your appeal must be to show how you meet the Support Group descriptors

Qualifying for the Support Group


There are, theoretically, risks associated with appealing (or asking for reconsideration)

Is there any risk to challenging a decision?

You are still obliged to attend Work Focussed Interviews if requested to do so

Do I have to attend WFIs while I appeal?

there are other appeal resources that you might find helpful
