Assessor says review after 2 years.
Award given for 3 years but with review after 2 years.
The award end date looks as though it is a year longer than the assessor's recommendation although it isn't really.
It is not for others to intervene. The assessor will be well within her/his rights to object to a 2nd person to interject during the examination. It is also up to the assessor solely to refuse to hear any additional comments from anyone else at the end of the assessment. In fact the assessor can either stop the assessment if someone else keeps interrupting or have that person ejected from the room.
I was awarded PIP in March 2018 until March 2020 but then received a form for a review a year early. I went to the face to face assessment today and asked why I was having this a year early. She said that I shouldn't be and wasn't sure, so rang her boss. The answer for hilarious!! Apparently they have so much case load now that if they waited until next year they wouldn't be able to cope with the amount of work so some people are being seen a year early but it's basically a completely fresh claim!!! I'm outraged that we are being put through this every year because of "their workload ". It's bad enough having to deal with my every day problems without having to worry about this year in, year out. I've told them my condition isn't going to change every year!!
I hope your assessment wasn't too stressful yesterday and that they get back to you with a decision soon. Don't forget if you can call them in around a week and ask for a copy of the assessment report which will give you a good indication of what your award is likely to be.
