    Hi @char38 welcome to the community! Are the 13 points the total points awarded or either component?

    The DWP do usually go with the report, so it sounds like you have enhanced daily, I'd wait for the letter to make sure though :) When I asked for my report the DWP sent a cover letter stating that it's not final and that it could be changed.

    Yeah cross fingers! In my case I'm hoping the DM doesn't go with the report as my mobility and daily living have been dropped! but yeah, I doubt that's going to happen!

    Obviously yes it does. But what else is the answer? Go back to the bad old days of DLA? No regular checks, no real face to face assessment process and best of all letting people keep on claiming the benefit until THEY tell the DWP that they no longer qualify for it?
