Good luck Taf, remember once the assessment has been carried out to phone the DWP and ask for a copy of the assessment report as this report will help should you need to ask for a mandatory reconsideration or appeal. The MR needs to be done within a month of the date of a decision. You need to give specific reasons why you disagree with the decision. Use your decision letter, statement of reasons and medical assessment report to make a note of each of the statements you disagree with and why. Taf put in as many examples as you can and don't be afraid to list everything that
could apply. I would also include medical evidence, supporting the descriptors chosen. If you don't have medical evidence to hand you could talk to your son's GP and give your son's GP a copy of your letter you could then ask them if they could write you a letter of support in regards to this matter and the points you have raised. Some GPs charge a fee for this letter, if your GP does give you a letter of support make a copy of it before sending it with your MR. Then you have a copy of the GPs letter of support should it go to appeal.
