    Yes, organisations fill forms/write letters for others all the time.

      No need for your cousin to write. Just write it for her it will be absolutely fine.

      Most MR decisions remain the same, so please be prepared to take it to Appeal Tribunal. I hope this doesn't happen, good luck!

      This is the reaosn why most MR's remain the same because DWP want people to stop fighting. They don't want you to take it to tribunal because the success rate is about 60%.

    As long as you let them know in a covering letter you helped her this is fine. Do your own letter anyway explaining her difficulties and how you find she manages on a day to day basis. The more you explain in the letter the better. I have helped my son fill in his mandatory reconsideration form. And I sent in a letter which explained why we were sending it. Good luck.
