You will only need to do this if your life expectancy is 12 months or less. If it is then you can ask either your GP, Doctor or Consultant for the SR1 form (previously known as the DS1500). Details here. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/dwp-factual-medical-reports-guidance-for-healthcare-professionals/the-special-rules-how-the-benefit-system-supports-people-nearing-the-end-of-lifeIf the diagnosis isn't end of life then you don't need to report any changes unless you can score more points for Enhanced daily living.
