Pip - worried about losing points after change of circumstances

scared56

I'm so worried about my pip and health, I had an award of 11 daily living for long term mental health, severe agrophpia, just one thing then my osteoarthritis got to bobone on bone fracture swelling so painful and my hands aare stage 4, so I put a change of circumstances to pip, and I've had the worst time no help, to get an assessment and be told to see a youyoutude pip video saying they onlytake one with best discridescriptors so I'll lose point and my planning a journey I only did this as im paying for people's help now, I'm probably the worst in I've been in ages hospital appointments all the time can't sleep or eat gps rubbish, I'm looking permanently for options and help . Anyone any knowledge to share please x

You don't need to pay for help or watch YouTube videos.

Who ever told you to do that gave you bad advise.

You could try citizens advice, a local welfare rights organisation or look up Turn to us on google for free professional advice.

Hi @scared56, I'm really sorry to hear how stressed out this is making you feel, it sounds like you're dealing with a lot already even without PIP stress.

As luvpink says above, you shouldn't have to pay for advice. There are lots of services out there that will help you with your PIP claim for free. You could try having a look at Turn2Us to see if there's any local advisers that could take a look at your case: https://advicefinder.turn2us.org.uk/

Sorry if I've misunderstood, have you had a new date through for your PIP assessment after submitting the change of circumstances?
