In the final decision of being rewarded pip, do they take the forum into consideration?

in PIP, DLA, ADP and AA

I recently had a telephone assessment, but I was unable to speak clearly and the severity of my condition, I was wondering if they will take the forum I wrote and sent to them into the final consideration or just the telephone assessment?

    Hi @redpanda0394, both are usually taken into consideration. The assessment is often to back up anything you talked about on your form and to ask questions about anything that wasn't clear.

    If you wrote on your form that you have difficulties speaking clearly due to your conditions, they should hopefully take this into account when they consider your award.

    I hope you get a positive result for your PIP 😊

    thank you so so much, and yes I did write this so Im hoping it will be speaking to people is one of my weak points in person and over the phone, I was just worried as I wasn’t able to speak about the severity and all difficulties of my conditions .. she asked me about my symptoms of autism and I listed one thing and somehow froze up and forgot everything even tho I very much am autistic 🥲
