    Hi @lisabrazil80!

    We can't really predict what the report will say, but you can try this PIP self-test to see what points you could have met.

    Please do let us know when you have heard back from them!

    I know it's easier said than done but slow down as you will make yourself Ill. Iff they turn you down appeal straight away. They fail so many people and their genuinely Ill only to give it to them after. I do feel sorry for you and think this assessment business is so unfair. Don't know when my next assessment is but dreading it. Good luck

    @lisabrazil80!, Firstly wait a week then telephone DWP and ask for a copy of your acessment  report, when it arrives about 14 days after requesting you will and should be able to work out how many points you have been awarded. Remember if any descriptor is marked with black dot in first section is no points, two points for second box, you need to get a minimum of 8 points to get basic award in both daily living and mobility and 12 points for the enhanced award to get this in the mobility part either of  the two last descriptors need to be marked with a black dot to qualify for full mobility.  I hope you find this helpful, you could take a self test on this site or benefits and works site, good luck.
