Hi and welcome, thats a question no one can answer, but you can phone them and ask for a copy of the assessment which should give you an idea of the award.Be extra nice to new members.
-
@katho31 do you have a letter indicating a personal interview/assessment, probably at home these days as stuffy waiting rooms are a nogo? After the assessment, you will get a letter indicating success or otherwise. Only at that stage can you request the written assessment. Their assessors are probably reduced in number these days.

hi guys ....I,m sure the PIP do not now do face to face assessments ...but they can do them by phone or by post.
My Severly autistic grandson ( just turned 16) has been invited ( in february) to apply for PIP. She had a letter saying face to face assessments have been suspended until this virus is over. -
