Hello,
I was awarded the standard level of PIP in 2015. I feel that the scoring and tasks were very unfair.
How would I go about informing PIP that I drive and require extra support than I was awarded for?

Hi,If your condition has got worse have you've looked at the PIP descriptors to see if you can score more points for a higher award? PIP isn't about being able to drive.Reporting a change of circumstances mean you'll be sent more PIP2 forms, which will need to be filled in and returned, with all your evidence. Another face 2 face assessment is most likely because most have them.My advice is to take a look at the descriptors and then get some expert advice before reporting any changes.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -
@adamb123, reading your last post and now this post it looks as if now you have passed your driving test you want to get a car hopefully by getting the enhanced mobility part of PIP.
