DISGUSTING

I went with my Husband to an Appeal Court for PIP, he was on the middle rate of DLA until PIP assessment. We were not given time to get our papers out at the Trial I was told to be quiet twice or I would have to leave...... (All I was doing ws helping a little with my husband.) At the end they started trying to **** me off about my claim as my Husband is my Carer But not anymore we have NO Care now at all. PLEASE HELP WHAT CAN WE DO.

As you have no award in payment you should submit a new claim straight away
DLA and PIP use different criteria for awards, PIP is more about functionality then condition
It is important to understand the points system, descriptors and the criteria for an award. A good starting place is the B&W self test

Please come back and look at the info on this site and ask any questions

Either, find an error in law with which to appeal to the UTT, which is very rare
Or start a new claim using the knowledge gained
