in PIP, DLA, ADP & AA
My claim was suppose to be reviewed around September time but I’ve sent loads of information off and happy to say I’ve been awarded the same so I’m happy! I didn’t have a telephone assessment and don’t attend F2F assessments regardless of coronavirus. I don’t attend them full stop. I’m so happy been awarded 5 years again !!!! a decision maker did call me up to ask some questions, all sorted now. Can’t believe it ?

    @woodbine thanks mate. appreciate it. didn’t no they can call and make a decision. is that because I sent further evidence off?

    @woodbine because my review wasn’t till September time. So I’m so made up. do you think it’s because further evidence got sent off? or not. once again thank you.
