Hi
So i said I had a letter saying they are reviewing PIP a whole year early. Well I have now had a appointment come though for face to face assessment. I am worried sick I don't even know how I will get though to the appointment day. I do not know what to do about the following.
They want 2 x ids with pictures which I do not have.
1 x id of birth cert. I have no idea if I even have one or where.
Last time I asked my local MHT for someone to attend with me, it was horrific as the person who attended with me was so cold an unsupportive on the day and even said to me some negative things which made me even more distressed on the day on top of my anxiousness. How can I have someone come with me whom is supportive?
I am not safe using public transport to get there can they help with something else?
Many Thanks for your imput

Does it not give you suggestions on what types of ID they accept?
Do you have a bus pass, that has a photo on it.Do not follow me, I don't know where I am going. -
Hi deepblue
Do you have a family member or friend that can go with you ?
They may be able to arrange a taxi for you, ring and ask

Phone the place and tell the you need a taxi and why. You take your receipts in or post them in. Although I only got part refund. Also can you get a home visit ?
