Dreading my pip assesement i have sent evidence into capita and the dwp.... Asked for a home visit but no they still want a face to face i car,nt cope with going to strange places everyone looking at me

My mum originally got a f2f appointment I rang atos explained she's no good with strangers and they approved a home visit straight away but they did look at the evidence first whilst I was on the phone . Keep on asking !

Thankyou for your reply i ,ve rang 3 times but to no avail

Hmm maybe Capita is a lot stricter than Atos ..good luck on your assessment .

Sorry to hear this, @freckles. Keep trying, and keep us updated! We'll be thinking of you.

normally you will need a specific letter from your GP detailing why you cannot attend an assessment centre. Some people are granted HA on their evidence but is the exception rather than the norm
