    When I first applied in 2006 I only got LRM. I asked for a review 9 months later and got LRM and MRC. Hopefully that will stay the same. I would prefer to get HRC as that would mean I can stay on IB without having to go for medicals. Luckily when my IB was reviewed in September I didn't have to go for a medical as my condition is severe enough to qualify automatically.
    Sounds like you will be ok with your reviw

    But they keep asking for more and different documents. They are coming across as very inept.
