Hi
After getting awarded at tribunal last year (I was originally given 0 points) I was awarded standard care.

I was advised by the CAB to do an unplanned intervention.

I completed a new form in November last year (CAB).

Sent all the information and my care assessment.

I had my telephone assessment on 13th of June and I  have now been awarded enhanced for both elements until December 2023.

12 points for mobility and 21 points for care.

I am very grateful and can chill now.

Thanks to all.

    It’s a stupid phrase that I think used to be used by DWP for when a benefit award is looked at again due to a change of circumstances rather than when planned by DWP. i thought they’d stopped using it.

    This does seem bit hit and miss on points awarded. I've SPMS and I don't get anything for mobility component. I'm worse than someone I know who gets enhanced. I guess me working part time and determined to walk to nearest bus stop went against me. That was 2 years ago and I've given up work after few falls and the extra struggle and have now reapplied for mobility part, see what decision comes out.
