Do you mean you rang DWP and asked for a copy of the assessment report and were told you couldn't have it? If so, try ringing back again tomorrow and speak to someone different, this time you may just speak to someone that will agree to send it out. If you live in the UK they can and will send the report out before a decision is made.
It didn't cause an issue as I asked for a MR when I got the decision which was returned to the DWP within a few days.
When i received my report it had nothing about what points had been awarded.
All it did say was in each section they had put if what i had put in my "" how my disability effects me "" talied in with what he seen.
Maybe that's where the confusion has taken place when you have rung pip up as the point scored will only be on the decision letter not med report.
Hope this helps & good luck x.
It may well be there but on a different document that is not being sent out for obvious reasons.
As if the points was on the f2f report people would be aware or the decision before any decision maker has looked ar the claim ( as most people are aware of the points needed for each level of pip).
Hopefully i will be put out of my misery soon and receive my decision letter .
The HCP recommends what they think in that report and that includes ticking the boxes for each of the descriptors. As I previously said you need to look at the boxes with either dots or ticks and use the PIP descriptors to compare and see what points, if any were recommended. The decision maker usually goes with the report and usually awards the points that's been recommended. It's rare for them to go against it.
Can i ask did you get your f2f consultation report with your decision letter or did you receive the PA4 consultation report before hand?
I received all of my PIP PA4 assessment reports before I received all the decision letters. The points recommended in the PA4 assessment report were awarded by the decision maker because they mostly go with the report.
On looking at the link above and looking at the PA4 form i have 8 points for daily living & 10 points for mobility part.
