Pip assessment question

lou51

Hi

I was looking for advice please. I have my pip phone assessment on 9th March.

My health problems are depression anxiety and hearing loss. On my claim form I mainly talked about the mental health issues but now realize I should have also talked more about my hearing loss and how it affects me

Will I be able to go into more detail at assessment or will they not let me? 

I guess I'm just so used to being deaf that I overlook the problems it causes me. I have hearing aids for both ears which I stated on the form.

Yes, you should tell them everything about how your conditions affect you during the assessment. What you should focus on,  is give a couple of real world incidents of what happened the last time you attempted each activity that applies to you. (if you didn't do this when filling out the form)

Thanks Poppy. I will start making notes so that I'm prepared.
