    Having had a conversation with that miserable git at the dwp yesterday. I thought I would ring up and confirm that the report had been posted out . What a surprise got through to another most unhelpful woman must be something in the tea up there  ( I think their are accents are from Yorkshire but I could be wrong). I apologise to any nice people from there on here from that county. Got a different story she said that it had only just arrived in the last hour and had not been posted out yesterday.  . As you can imagine I pointed out yesterday's conversation that the woman was going to post it out and I knew it had arrived yesterday. She said there was nothing on the system to indicate that. She promised to print out the assessors report right now, and she would send it out and it would be with me in 7 to 10 days. I didn't know we had a second, third, fourth and fifth class post. The dwp are using the latter. They really don't want to send them out and are waiting for the dwp to make the award rather than send the assessors report out. I may be sceptical but I doubt if I will get be medical report.

    If your condition has changed within the last 3 months and you have evidence to support this, then you need to report a change, if it's not changed at all and remained the same, then you don't need to phone them.

    Hope so, yes hopefully it will last a while, I hate it when it’s too hot and there’s no breeze, if there is a breeze like today it’s nice

    Yes especially with what’s happening, if it was raining it would just be the case indoors a bit bored, at least on Monday we can see 6 of our friends and family and some shops are opening and the rest of the shops are opening the 15th June, and school years are going back this week.

    @daisy80 I don’t mean to sound rude but they wouldn’t ask you about work at all. as you can ‘legally’ work as many hours as you want and still get PIP. It’s not means tested. doesn’t go off your wage ect ect. I work part time and get what I should get so I’m happy. ? the only time it would affect it is if your getting points for saying mixing with others “ and are working in a busy retail job where you wouldn’t be entitled to them points ect ect. also just to add, on the PIP website and CIB you don’t even have to declare to DWP you are even working. and you won’t get a penalty for it as your not under no legal obligation to inform them. ?

    I'm afraid there are no other benefits that you can apply for. Let us know how your hearing goes.
