DLA to PIP

sadboy

Hi I was on dla high rate for 7 years and middle rate care. Changed to pip assessor came awarded me middle rate of care and mobility. Appealed it decision stood. I then took it to tribunal with my case being heard in January. Roll on 6 months later.had a new assessment last week this is before my tribunal due to a different complaint been awarded full mobility and care high rates. This surely shows the first assessor was incompident at best. I was awarded 9 points before for my Care first time 9 points this time 16 yes 16 points and nothing on that side has changed that’s a full 7 points more. It was only the mobility side she was coming out for this time and duly awarded me the 12 points. Will the dwp now realise the first assessment must have been lies and now just do away with the tribual any judge will surely look at that and see you can’t change that much in 6 months the systems a joke.

You cannot have a new award and the tribunal hearing for the previous award at the same time it is up to you to cancel the tribunal as if it goes ahead the result means nothing as the award you have now got supersedes any previous awards

If i put in for another pip assesment will i have to cancel my appeal which is in about 9 months time

markyboy

Yes you will have to but why do you keep wanting to be reassessed  you could end up with a lesser award even if you think your condition has got worse there are no guarantees 
If you concentrate on your appeal and you win it will be backdated but once you ask for a new assessment you lose all those rights

By way of explanation. Case Managers when making decisions do not have to follow what a previous CM had decided.  In fact you could well have 6 CM all looking at the same claim form, evidence and assessors report and all 6 could well make different awards.

No. your appeal if successful will be limited to the date of any new decision
