Hi @pillar48 - I had this happen to me, with my first PIP claim, but it was a while back. The result was that I had 2 face to face assessments in 3 weeks! The same has happened to just a few of our members, but it does happen. The reason seems to be that the first assessment wasn't up to the standard it should be on the assessor's part. If it was of poor quality, as they do get checked every so often, then it's decided that a claimant needs another assessment.

You're welcome. No, it's not a bad thing. Just not much fun having to go through another assessment!
