PIP REVIEW ASSESSMENT
Hello, I was transferred from dla low rate care and low rate mobility in 2016, I never had a face to face and received 11 points only on care, no mobility, it was done in 5 weeks from sending the pip form in.
Now, I received a review form I. August, sent back on september around 18th, my wife was made my appointee by home visit, as my wife wrote to pip department asking to be appointee, it was granted at home visit with no evidence, my wife called pip five weeks ago and was told the review form is with a case manager, two weeks after, another call now it's with assessors, last Tuesday my wife received a call from assessors and lady asked a few questions to my wife, to see if she could do assesment over phone, the questions was all aimed at mobility, which was explained in the review form, ie, how often does your husband use a walking stick, does he go out on his own, then the assessor said, I dont need a face to face, is this a good thing? As how can the assessor justify answers as to how I walk ect. My problems if any use are, I use stick for pain in my liver.
Chronic depression
Anxiety
Alcoholic dependent syndrome
Hidradinitis supurativa (rare skin disease)
Asthma
Also, I'm ashamed to say this, a victim of child sexual abuse and a sexual assault in my early 20s,which was included with the review form. I told pip this in 2016, so why was I not assessed properly last time, all that was in my form in 2016 was "my motivation stops me doing this" this time it's been detailed properly
My wife wrote a detailed supportive letter, all evidence ie, councillors, I even reported some bits to police the letter was sent in also.
