An article by the Independent regarding benefits
Here is an article by the Independent (not by an official Government source) which talks about what some potential changes being planned for benefits may be. Before anyone comes for me, I’m just sharing an article I’m not saying it’s set in stone or how the Independent may know this, because I don’t know, I’m just sharing…

STRESSED ABOUT PIP REFORMS
I don’t need anyone to reply, I’m just letting off stress. I literally am so drained by waiting to see what happens with PIP, LWCRA & UC, all which I get. Getting PIP was one of the most hellish experiences and I’m still traumatised to this day and it runs out next summer, then I’ll have another assessment.. well I’m meant…

Felt bored. Mailed my MP
She's Green, so if/when I do get a reply it will not be the standard Labour party line. You will recall from the election that the 'small but mighty Greens' were going to hold Labour to account. Indeed, yes. All 4 of them. Dear Siân Berry. I am a single woman of 69. I have spinal curvature and can only walk with a rollator…

Appeal response
Hi all, I’m waiting on my appeal hearing. I’ve had a text message to say the DWP have responded so I rang the PIP helpline and they wouldn’t discuss it. They told me to ring the court which I did and the court wouldn’t tell me as they said the document is over 600 pages long. Does anyone know why this would be and if I…

Even the PIP2 prepaid envelope won’t stick down properly!
After weeks of prepping I’ve finally completed the PIP2 form for a new claim. What an absolute ballache to complete! Now need some cellotape to secure the pre paid envelope because the tight ar5es can’t afford to buy envelopes with enough glue on them!! It’s all part of their scheme to make sure the contents get “lost in…

One down, 999 to go
From Corrections at The Times August 19, 2024 We wrongly said that personal independence payment is for people who are medically unfit for work, and that GPs acted as gatekeepers for the benefit (Comment, Aug 19).

PIP
I have just read about the new assessment system. Will the DWP assess those already on PIP like they used to and make the decision to renew the PIP or will the new companies do all the reassessments as well (including those that would normally just be extended due to life long illness/no cure etc)??
