Hi
On the whole yes it is0 -
HI @berry123 - Yes, the questions will relate to what you put in your claim pack. You may get some other questions, for example, I was asked what sort of accomodation did I have, how far was it from my front door to my son's car when he parked outside; could I walk to the end of the road. These still related to my mobility, so made sense. There are no 'trick' questions; they will have relevance to what you've already written.

Any tips on how I make notes guys0

Good luck for next week. Reading through what you've written is a good idea. Just to add, whilst you're making notes, if you hadn't given a couple of detailed explanations for each applicable activity/descripter as to why you have difficulty think about that now. How was it difficult, when did it happen, who witnessed it, was there any consequence to it? Also can you do an activity safely, to an acceptable standard, repeat it as often as would be reasonably expected, & does it take you longer than someone who doesn't have your disability?Just be yourself, & ask them to repeat any questions if needed too.0
