Has anyone successfully completed one of the new PIP review forms?

Has anyone successfully completed one of the new review of your PIP claim forms. My daughters claim is now due for renewal. I'm finding it hard to complete as I'm so worried that I'll say the wrong thing. I need to explain why her mental health problems make it difficult to function in the same way as an adult without a mental health disability would be able to function.

HI,

You need to explain exactly how her conditions affect her, even if there's been no changes. Adding a couple of real world examples of what happens the last time she attempted that activity for each descriptor that applies to her. What you should aim for is one A4 side for each descriptor.

If it helps I completed mine at the beginning of the year. Often repeating myself over and over again. Within a couple of weeks I received my positive decision. Nothing had changed and so my award had to remain. My conditions remained and will remain.

Susiebee, was it one of the new forms? There doesn't seem to be as much room. I'm just worried because i find it hard to prove things because she has adhd and aspergers .

Just add extra pages, make sure they have your name and NI number written on them and it is clear which question the extra information relates to.
