Calcotti makes a good point here and she should report her health condition. Claiming PIP makes no difference because they are completely different benefits. If she doesn't report her health condition she will be expected to look for work. The work capability assessment process is the same as it is for ESA.
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. -
