    Was your assessment over the phone or face to face ? 
    I have sent both my forms back for pip and lcwra 
    my anxiety is through the roof waiting for the assessment as I don’t like opening up to people I don’t know

    Most are still by telephone but face to face started back for some people.

    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Nope, i don't and have no intentions of ever working for DWP. My knowledge comes from personal experience and further research. As well as learning from some very knowledgeable people

    I thought your claim would start once you return questionnaire not when you first applied a sick note

    No. You were advised about this on your other thread.

    It’s very confusing having duplicate threads on same subject by same OP.

    Opening poster (the person who started the discussion). My apologies for using an abbreviation. I also realise that you didn’t actually start this thread but I’ve got confused because you have started adding your questions to this thread when you have your own running elsewhere.

    You can do this but it just makes it easier to advise if everything is in one thread 

    You will get used to the site but if you have any questions just ask

    Anyone can ask questions, no harm in that but when you've already had that question answered on a previous thread we end up going over the same ground..

    Most people have an assessment, which is mostly by telephone but some are face to face. Paper based assessments are rare but can happen. If an assessment is needed you will be contacted with a date and time. It's important to remember that it's not a medical.

    If you get awarded daily living for pip but also get mobility aswell do you receive 2 different payments ? Or do you just receive one payment for which one you scored the most on if that makes sense

    You get one payment which contains both parts (any daily living award and any mobility award added together).
