Hey guys just another question about PIP have my phone assessment tomorrow morning which is making me feel physically sick … HOWEVER I wanted to know if I do get awarded PIP when will the date be backdated from? Is it from the day I made the phone call for the PIP form? Or is it backdated from when they received my PIP form back ?? I have marked both dates as money is so tight for me and I want to make sure I receive what’s fair… so I rung up the PIP phone line on 14th November 2022… I received my pip form on the 28th of November… so what would be the date they would backdate it from?? Any ideas ?? Thanks in advance you guys have made me feel so much more confident about this process and this website is a godsend ..🙏👍😊

It's backdated from the date you ring the DWP to get the process underway, so if you contact them on, e.g. 14th November, then payments will be from that date.
When you feel stressed, do something you enjoy, make tea, hoover, sing, roll paper throw it into the bin (suitable distance) etc.
Make sure you ask to record the assessment first thing, it might help further down the line.
Good luck, think positive.1 -

I am so glad stumbled across this site it’s a fantastic place gives you an idea on what is to come 🙏😊 huge thanks again0

You need to ring in advance to ask them to record the assessment. They won’t just record it when you ask on the day.0

Carry out a test, to make sure sure the recording works.1 -
Completely overlooked it's a telephone assessment. Though the assessor will still need to agree to it being recorded. If they don't agree then the assessment will end and you'll need to wait for another appointment.

I would personally prefer to concentrate on the assessment. A recording isn't going to get anyone a PIP award.

This following discussion between professional benefits adviser highlights why worrying about the content of an assessment report is largely a waste of effort.

Again that isn't going to get you a PIP award. The Tribunal already know that a lot of assessments are flawed. Once the assessment is done, it's in the past and you should keep it there. Concentrate on the weakness in your evidence.
