  Hi,

  
  

  If your condition has got worse have you've looked at the PIP descriptors to see if you can score more points for a higher award? PIP isn't about being able to drive.

  
  

  Reporting a change of circumstances mean you'll be sent more PIP2 forms, which will need to be filled in and returned, with all your evidence. Another face 2 face assessment is most likely because most have them.
  

  
  

  My advice is to take a look at the descriptors and then get some expert advice before reporting any changes.

  @adamb123, reading your last post and now this post it looks as if now you have passed your driving test you want to get a car hopefully by getting the enhanced mobility part of PIP.

  You can't re-apply if you already have an award. See my comment above.
