Hi Everyone,
I havent had my date through for my PIP assessment but i do know the assessors will be IAS - I called the PIP and they gave me the number. I was just a bit worried the letter getting lost in the post even though they have my mobile number too. I spoke to a lovely guy who did say there is a possibility i may not even need one depending on answers and evidence provided. But just in case i do - what type of questions will I be asked and what sort of preparation do i need to do. A friend of mine did apply after me and has her assessment date for this week.
Reading some of the threads its like you got to prepare for a sort of presentation with Q&A's. Any help much appreciated.
Cheers,
Naila

Hi @naila_007
My son's assessment was carried out by Capita and they asked the same questions as are in the pip form. They asked how his condition affected him and what hobbies and interests he has. I don't know if this is the standard format as it's his first one as he didn't need an assessment previously. Hope this helps a little ?1
