xxgaynorxx said:Thankyou for the link. I have read it and yes appeal person 1 was denied. But like I stated it is down on my initial pip form and assessors report that I go out with my son so 1E wouldn’t apply (although it has been). Sorry I find it hard to put my explanation in writing).
If you disagreed with that decision at the time what you should have done was appeal it by first requesting the Mandatory Reconsideration.

I also went to the face to face with my CPN.The assessor AND CPN were under the impression I wouldn’t be able to score F as it didn’t mention overwhelming psychological distress (at that time). The laws and assessment rules have changed since. And that descriptor E was more suitable. Maybe I’m wrong but I have been allowed LEAP team to look at my case again and am awaiting decision.
According to this link they are only considering claims that had a decision on or after November 28th 2016. See link. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/personal-independence-payment-changes/overwhelming-psychological-distress-and-journeys-changes-to-pip-law-from-28-november-20160 -
