Hi
Im not sure but think possibly.
I had my first f2f last year after 2years without any.
Id contact CAB or ask her mental health professional to help fill the forms in.
Sorry I can’t give you a proper answer -
Hi ourbilly and welcome
Everyone that claims PIP is subject to review or reassessment and in many cases a f2f is required.
PIP is a test of functionality and the assessment is just about how functionality is affected it is not a medical.
It is always a good idea to get trained help with the forms whether it is a review form or a new application
