Appeal and MR - clarification was created by dancer22
My son has scored 0 points on his WCA for ESA and is 'fit for work'.
I am his appointee.
I found this in the guides "If you have been found fit for work under the WCA, you can appeal without the need to apply for an
MR".
Should I apply for a MR as well as filling in the appeal form ?

Hi dancer22

I would send off a Mandatory Consideration as this occurrence is highly unusual. A DWP officer has interviewed your son and concluded that he is lacking the mental capacity to administer his Benefits. How long ago was the Appointeeship made and has your son's health improved greatly since?
I would also phone the DWP and ask for a copy of the Assessor's report, the ESA85.
