Hiya
just wanted to share my story regards to applying for pip this is my first time applying for it, I had my telephone assessment today I was very scared before having it but when I was on the phone I was okay, after the assessment the lady said to me she will write up my report today and it will be sent back to dwp today, so fingers crossed I hear from them soon!

Hey
I’ve just recieved my assessment report how I add up the points? -
Hi @greenpatts23 - the last few pages of the report will have a black dot in place for each activity or descriptor. Check these against the following link, & you should be able to work out your points for daily living & also for the mobility component. See: https://www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/asset-library/Scores-for-PIP-Descriptors-2020.pdf

@chiarieds thank you ?
@Cher_Scope thank you
what the lady has put on my report is in correct which I am unhappy about -
You're welcome - You need 8 or more points for the standard rate, & 12 or more for enhanced rate for each component (daily living and mobility).
-
Thank you I will add it up shortly ?

Who do I complain to about my report, do I have to call dwp?

greenpatts23 said:Who do I complain to about my report, do I have to call dwp?The health assessment providers, details how to complain will be on their website. The assessment reports are nothing to do with DWP.Did you add up the recommended points? Usually they go with the report, it's rare to go against it. Once the decision is made if you're not happy then you'll have 1 month to request the MR.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

@poppy123456 thank you ?

Sorry it hasn't gone as you'd hoped.
Good luck if you decide to go for MR..everyone here will be rooting for you.
Best wishes.
