    just a note on what you said 1 i know what i should have goten a know how much lies cost me  i know my pip will stop straight after acessmant and how much it will cost me i also know three consultants were gobsmacked at last acessmants results and i aldso know why i had last one looked at dispite mr failing  purely as the  daft dm sighned my papers   her mistake  meant i was able to point out i could and would take her to court    she then relooked at my case rung on a sat morning exsplaing she had awaerded enought points for both lower is that satisfactory to me ??now after all the hassel lies from them till that time i had a sress related stroke so   i think i know its fight or stop  instead of  listening to peaple on here who prob had it easy   refering to youer comment half won't know what points or a mount they lost should have sorry if this affends but a walefare rights person told me that yes you need medical documants and consultants  and any evidance  that helps dm make his decision ??all wrong i have it in writeing from dwp they use only acessers report as a fully qualified medical profesinol and there is no point in this advice it is a complete waste of time 
    - complaint to assessment provider if guidance breached.
    - complaint to the relevant professional body for the HCP if misconduct etc. can be demonstrated.

    I’m not going to take offence so no need to apologise but, no, you’re making assertions. You’re guessing that your PIP will cease immediately after your assessment when a decision is made. That’s a guess understandably based on your previous experience but it is a guess and not a fact until it happens. Trying to prevent things happening on a case that haven’t actually happened yet is just misdirecting yourself to no gain and potentially creating way more stress and (especially) delay than is needed.

    The advice you had from a welfare rights person was correct but... the best evidence for a PIP claim is your own anecdotal evidence of the impact of your conditions. That’s the single most persuasive thing. However, if there are specifc gaps in the evidence then other evidence (not necessarily medical), which addresses those gaps directly, can be vital. I am of the view that WRAs who say you can’t succeed without medical evidence and who put the emphasis on that are demonstrably wrong. 52% of successful claims succeed without any medical evidence. Advice that you must put in medical evidence is wrong. Advice that you should put in medical evidence directed to addressing specific gaps is good advice. Whilst a DM may prefer the evidence of a HCP they cannot ignore other evidence and an appeal tribunal usually won’t either.

    You have also misunderstood your DWP correspondence. You are incorrect in assuming DWP only consider the HCP report. If your supporting evidence went in with your claim pack then it should be scanned and uploaded so the HCP can see it before your assessment and can take it into account. Sadly that upload often fails and, even when it doesn’t, HCPs almost never have the time to read the masses of (often irrelevant) medical reports claimants send in. If the diagnosis itself is not disputed then consultants reports are largely irrelevant as they don’t specifically address daily living or mobility and it’s absolutely legit for both a HCP and a DWP DM to give them little weight. That’s not the same as spitefully or deliberately ignoring them.

    DWP decision and MR decision letters are computer generated at speed and under pressure. They will often say that they only used the claim pack and the HCP report when that isn’t what they did at all. 
    okay so what you are saying is everything is fine they go on facts and reports and at reconsideration will just look at facts and award me pip?  but if not appeal will in a years time  look at all paperwork then say yes this man is ill and give me benefits ????  and the paperwork from dwp is wrong and they lied that they do not need medical facts they request from us or that acesser is only one they listen to  and when dwp tell you  you are not affected by heart lungs and arterys  being shot  or you cant walk  and physio says rubbish  he fit and well they ignor that and award pip ??is this correct i do not know you but what im reading from a former welfare rights officer sounds bit like you make exscuses for what they do ???ohhh just another thought  we have welfare officer local  his view was  no the dwp do not treat peaple like this nor do acessmant companys   you prob never had enough evidence ?????? life expectancy of 5 to 9 years   but won't put in writing as my condition means i could die while writing this  dwp said everyone can die anytime   im not doing this for fun im doing it because of treatment i had and am having from  supposed qualified people  who lie to get cash while killing me and us now if i was confirmed near death say this month  dwp words we would fast track the process brill aint it

    Nope, I’ve not said any of that and I’m not a “former” WRO.

    The fact you’re still largely referring to your impairments and not the points scoring consequences suggests you have yet to identify the specific points you should score and may well have focused on gathering irrelevant evidence in consequence. 

    You appear to be misinterpreting most everything you’ve been advised on so sadly I doubt there's anything I can usefully add. 
    let me ask you a question re evidence i collected ?? do you mean heart consultant stroke?  phisciretrist and reports of mri scans   and having acresmant with legs three times normal size no arm feeling re stroke? and full exsplation on  affects of illness   given befor acessmant ?? to dwp who say supply it  then send out to me a physio to ask me to do certain things like stand up  check eyesight  pic up bit paper then they ignor everything and put 8lies   FAIL ??? now on review  as legs worse breathing worse now must suply further evidance  as stated on form  so were do i go from here????? i have spoken to case worker dwp  and told get from docs and physio

    maid08  your assessment on March 5th  is this a home visit .    My reassessment was changed to a home visit  ( by  Capita ) as I could not do the journey alone or accompanied .   and yet my Capita assessor scored me nil points for mobility . This in itself is a contradiction .  What do you think / ?
