when my brother in law had his assessment I was with him the assessor was a nurse what was said in the assessment was totally different when he got his outcome how can someone who has seen you for 30 minutes really know the extent of their problems
One answer to this. They don't and they always presume your fine it's all about cost cutting. Nothing more. It would take weeks for them to really understand how your suffering not 10 minutes or 30 minutes.
The honest answer is they don't care nor understand how will all have to live on a daily basis
⬇️ I created one of the campaign election videos for Labour, and Jeremy Corbyn, This is a new version of Emeli Sande, Hope "You Are Not Alone
I highlighted everything that's wrong with this country from benefits, NHS, UC etc, but now we have to put up with the hate now that is the Tories.
Unfortunately I also had a Nurse who would not view the evidence as to my sight loss and after the assessment she said I have PERFECT VISION but doctors have Registered me as Partially Blind !!!! She has basically said that she knows better than Optimologists from my Hospital and an expert in Moorfields Hospital and cancelled my Higher Rate PIP and put me back to Standard PIP I am in the middle of waiting for my Tribunal so fingers crossed
You must complain to the company who carried out your acessment, if you gave surporting evidence about your sight. The acessor must and has to be investigated by her employers the sooner the DWP records the acessments the better but sadly it will not stop acessor from not reading surporting evidence and recording it apropreately. We also must take, give and ask and insist that the accessor reads the supporting evidence for our claim.
Its a bit dificult to try to get someone to read. And take in infomation. If they are determined they armt going to. We can only show them our evudence

She probably made an innocent error whilst writing up the report.
When you requested the MR you should have concentrated on where you think you should have scored those points and why. Instead, it seems like you concentrated on the lies that were told. DWP would not be interested in any lies that you think were told. They will only be interested in facts and it's your responsibility to prove that those descriptors apply to you.
It always baffles me when people get their local MP involved in a PIP refusal when most likely their MP knows very little if anything about the PIP descriptors and exactly what they mean. There's a lot more to PIP than walking and moving your limbs.
Why on earth would you let someone in your house without asking to see their I.D and knowing their name.
Constantly re-apply for PIP isn't the answer because they'll most likely keep refusing you.
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.
