in PIP, DLA, ADP and AA
I am due to get my award review in September time. can I send the same document off as well as new evidence? I have special needs and was in a special needs school with ADHD as well which is a life long condition. do I note this again or not? I have started getting all my evidence ready now. I’m on enhanced for daily living. how do I get my award the same again? any advice anyone. thank you everyone I appreciate all your replies I really do!

    @samfits99 Hi I hope your well, I’m not sure about award reviews, when my award was running out I phoned PIP a few months before and had to do a full new claim again, but I would imagine you would tell them everything again, I’m sorry if this advice is wrong, but I’m sure someone that knows more will post and let you no, just want to wish you well with it.

    Hi @samfits99 - Just to add to the great advice given by woodbine, the review form is much shorter than the initial claim form, but you can add extra pages at the end giving as much information as you did with your initial claim (putting your name & National Insurance number on each page).
    Do send off any relevant information....what you already have, as well as anything new.

    @woodbine thanks for your advice. I don’t have F2F assessments due to my anger issues and ADHD. so would be a telephone assessment but now till then things could change. but thanks for all your advice. I will treat it as a new claim.

    @chiarieds thanks for your advice. I will treat it as a new claim and send relevant documents off. and put my name and N.I on each one. also is it worth getting it sent via special delivery?

    Hi @samfits99 - No need to send it special delivery, just ask for a certificate of posting, which will prove, if needed, that you've posted it.

    @chiarieds thank you. I do think it’s terrible how people are getting Zero points on the telephone assessments that’s a load of BS! hopefully I won’t have to have one. I’m going to get a paperbased assessment as they don’t see me because I’m violent and have anger issues.

    @Username_removed seems like you no your stuff and cheers for all your advice. they will never let me have a F2F assessment under no circumstances. I will get my brother to do my review form I will sign it and send all the evidence off ect ect. I’ve heard the decision maker can call you up to ask you questions? have you heard that before.
