Not sure how this works as I'm new but wanted to pick somebody's brains...I had my pip renewal form in October sent it off then 4 weeks ago I received a letter saying they needed more info off my doc etc so i rang them as i was anxious my money was about to stop and they then dragged me in for an assesment 3 days later...should I not have rang?

Hello @sicktodeath74 Pleased to meet you welcome.

Thank you for joining and also sharing.

I am one of the team of community champions who help and advise new members who join.

Please ask if we can advise on anything.

All I know have to report any changes plus asking your Doctors for additional information. For reassurance need to know more about how your illness, disability or condition.

Please take care.

I had my first assesment just over 2 years ago and I had no choice but to go for the assesment they said

Most people have to attend face to face assessments. If you don't attend your benefits will stop.
