Hi Katherine and a big warm welcome to our community

I am so sorry you are haveing such a hard time with this.
It is so unfair when undeserving people manage to beat the system when we struggle to get the help we need.
This is partly why PIP was made harder to get, to try and get rid of the people that are abusing the system.
What stage are you at  just now ?
Have you been turned down completely ?

Can you tell us a little moreabout your situation and we will try and point you in the right direction
