Hi everyone.
Since August last year I have been going through the whole PIP application process and after a MR I got awarded PIP a few weeks ago.
Now, I have just received a letter from my GP asking me for permission to give ATOS my entire medical records. Letter dated 22nd of Feb. Please note this is AFTER I have been awarded PIP a few weeks ago.
I can't understand why they want that?
Or maybe the letter has crossed over and was requested before my award....has anyone ever had this at all?
Thanks

I am happy but I am but confused why they want my entire records after i have been awarded. I haven't said I'm unhappy etc.
Ummmm... -
If your condition warrants a higher award, this may have been flagged up. Without knowing what your claim is bassed on it is hard to speculate
