Free Mandatory Reconsideration Letter Generator

Challenge a WCA decision that found you Fit for Work or placed you in the wrong group. This tool generates a structured MR request letter you can send to the DWP.

Did you know? In July 2026, 78% of ESA Work Capability Assessment decisions that went to Mandatory Reconsideration were revised (DWP statistics, September 2026), although monthly rates have varied between 46% and 80% since 2020 and the numbers are small. There are no equivalent published figures for Universal Credit. You have one month from the date of your decision letter to request a Mandatory Reconsideration.
