    You always like to twist things. If you're going to ask for an ongoing award then obviously you're going to produce evidence to support that request. I did both recently, so we'll see.
    Good, that is what I was suggesting should happen.

    Previously on this site it was suggested by another poster that you wait until you get the decision and then, if not happy with the length of the award, would ask the DWP to show you what evidence they have used to make the short award. It seemed that the DWP would almost always back down as they don't have that evidence.

     If you want PIP there is only one way you get out of the system is by dying.
    Don't be so ridiculous! is there really any need for that? Plenty of people claim PIP without any problems at all.
    Yes there was. You have missed the point I was making.
    The conversation was about continuous re-assessments no matter what age you are at. I pointed out that with these reassessments running at every 2/3 years, if you need or want to keep the award going the only way that they will stop is if you die of old age.

    Meaning that even at 90 years of age you still have every chance of being reassessed.

    And to make the point clearer, I will be 71 in a couple of months and I'm still fighting the bu**ers!
