Hi, my name is mominto!

I have been waiting for a PIP assessment since APRIL 2018 - and still waiting.
I have finally managed to get them to agree to a home assessment - this was a battle despite the location given would have required a 4hour bus journey (each way). My physical health is not good, but I am now also under the care of the Crisis Mental Health Team, having tried to commit suicide 3 times last year. I have just managed to stave off my house being repossessed and am STILL waiting for the mortgage interest loan stuff to be processed. I receive basic UC (317 per month) and all my job centre can say is that PIP assessments can take a while (!) and there is nothing they can do. Can someone please help me get this sorted????
