My second assessment

We got a form two days ago in the post. Yesterday I spent about four hours on my own doing the form. I provided a lot of information on the impact of their disabilities on our lives. The whole point is to basically give them as much information as you can possibly. As I filled out the form I described the reasons why I wanted the benefit. It might help to have a fresh pair of eyes looking at the form. A social worker can come in handy here too.
Good luck. -

Thanks for saying that. I have lurked for a long time but never posted for fear of getting abuse for having been an assessor.

It really is enlightening to read your posts and the different perspective they offer. I wish I could find more insight from ex or indeed current assessors online.
Many thanksThe Not So SecREt Assessor #KeepRockingTheBoat
