in PIP, DLA, ADP and AA

I have just received a text from dwp(maximus) for a phone assessment 24 oct

I have posted before along with others on timescales

I sent back my forms in March, in September it was renewed for a year, roughly about 7 months for assessment

My first award 2019 was for standard on both

2022 was standard daily(10pts!) enhanced mobility

Now 3 years on, 60 years of age, conditions same, some worse, hope it at least stays the same

If I’m really lucky, may get the extra 2 pts for daily part

Depends on assessor, last one was ok, very first wasn’t, like a interrogation !

Anyway, wish me luck, nerves are already kicking in!

Hope all goes well for people waiting or going through same

    had phone assessment today, lasted hour and half

    Lady seemed ok, was a lot of if you could do this questions, or hypothetical questions, I just stuck to my original answers on review form, said will hear in 2-6 weeks

    they had sent questionnaires to go

    Asking sane things, got a copy, nothing there to help or hinder

    Like could I attend appointment on own

    Answer was don’t know!

    My gp doesn’t know me personally how my health/mind affects me

    Anyway it’s the wait now, good luck to anyone who is waiting for review etc

    Usually do not get back pay from a review. I have answered your later thread too.

    hi all

    Just got assessors report

    Last page

    “Based on the claimants likely future circumstances, it would be appropriate to review claim in: 

    Years blank

    Months blank

    Or on available evidence I consider there would be no requirement to arrange a view of this claim as significant change is unlikely 

    (Box ticked)

    Under that

    No review has been advised due to severity of muskulosketel and skin conditions are lifelong, level of function likely to improve 


    what does this mean?

    Just going through pts based on report, I know it’s not a given

    Thanks
