I have my pip assessors report . Looks like I have scored 6 for daily living and 4 for mobility which I know is not enough . Assessors comments aren’t helpful , a few lies and omissions, one of them being that I declined a physical exam when he said he wasn’t going to to ask me to anything that would cause pain and didn’t do one ! The thing that is puzzling me is that it has a review date of two years saying my functional restrictions will be present at review date ?

Hello @sandee55 and a warm welcome to the community. Sorry we don't seem to have got back to you sooner.
Not a benefits advisor, I can't make any comment on your question that would be of benefit to you, but what I can do is forward your post to those who will better understand. Consider that done
Warmest best wishes to you,

Hello sandee55
Unfortunately many claimants report that their medical assessment report is not always a true reflection of what was said and done at the medical examination. Many are left feeling frustrated and annoyed that they were not listened too and feel that the truth has not been told.
In regards to the review date of a condition. I am not really sure what relevance this has when PIP has been refused as the DWP would not call you back in 2 years to see if your are now entitled to benefit.
I hope that you are challenging the PIP decision, and as you are probably aware the first stage is to request a Mandatory Reconsideration within 1 month of the date of the decision letter (though this time limit can be extended).
Please post again if you need further assistance.

Yeah, @BenefitsTrainingCo , I got 0 points at my last PIP assessment. Review advised in 2 years. Huh?

They very often put a review date on a decision letter regardless of whether there's an award or not. Basically what they're saying is they don't expect a change in your condition within this time.The mostly go with the report, it's rare for them to go against it.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
