A positive result

CockneyRebel

Just because we seldom hear positive results I thought I would share my wifes PIP story. and give hope to anyone making a claim for PIP

She was awarded PIP for the first time in november 2017. Initially  standard care and enhanced mobility. After a paper based tribunal she was awarded enhanced for both. As this was awarded by tribunal her benefit came to an end in november 2019. We reapplied and went for a f2f on 9th of november. Today, 6th december, she received her award letter giving her enhanced for both components for an ongoing period.

Sometimes the DWP do get it right. Our experiance was straight forward and reletively painless. It is most important to understand the criteria for an award and give examples of how you are affected in performing each

Lovely to hear and read your positive result, all f2f assessments are not bad news. Great news just before Christmas. Have a good one.

@CockneyRebel brilliant news! i love hearing good news, especially because most of the stories we read are bad ones.

You can both relax now knowing it's all over for the next 10 years

My story also has a good ending, but the anxiety in the wait time and the assessment go off the wall.
It is good to post positive stories too.

My award is also for 10 years. Phew...at 67, with a chronic disability and facing hospital admission next Sunday, I needed good news.
