Hi to all'
I went last Tuesday for my Pip assessment for 3pm I was in about an hour and asked lots of questions and it was noted I have a lot of pain relief ect and lots of problems.
I also have a lot of fatigue going on and constant diorhhea which I think is related to my O. A. B.
I Have been told I have to wait 6 weeks to find out if I can get Pip.
I also forgot to get my recpiet for the taxi can I still claim it back.?

Hi,Leave it about a week and ring DWP to request a copy of the assessment report to be sent to you. This will give you some idea what the decision is likely to be because they mostly go with the report.Claiming expenses for a Taxi need to be agreed beforehand, did they agree to you taking a taxi? If they did then you'll still need a receipt as proof.
