I know a few people are waiting for pip assessments and decisions so I thought I’d share my experience.
I applied 11th of January and as well as the questionnaire I included lots of evidence, letters from my consultants and treatment plans, medication list from gp etc.
phone assessment was on 3rd of may. I had a lady from from a local support group near me who has helped a few people with their claims with advice, mainly because recently my speech has been affected by my condition. She was a big help even to just settle my nerves. Assessment lasted less than 20 mins.
Following day I received a text to say dwp had received my report.
Today I’ve been awarded standard rate the daily living and enhanced for mobility. Exactly what I felt I should get and the decision maker agreed with report. So it’s taken 3 weeks for me.
Money should go in my bank this Thursday 🎊🎉🍷
I’m so happy as this means I can get a mobility scooter and get out and about a bit again and not have to rely on my family so much.
Good luck everyone else. It is stressful I know lol
