Hi all, I requested a copy of the PIP assessors report last week and it arrived on Friday.  whilst there are areas where I feel its a little inaccurate where I feel the descriptors are harsh, I can see the justifications on the report would give me scope to appeal against them if I wanted to.  However, on the whole the report is a good assessment.  I have read through the recommendations and the descriptors would give me 12 points for care and 10 for mobility (in the moving around section which would be great as it would be enough to get a blue badge which would help significantly!).  I realise each case is evaluated individually and no two are the same but  I was just wondering if the decision makers usually go with the assessors recommendations or not in people experience?

    In most cases they go with the report recommendations

    Thank you, that's good to hear, although you would think it would be a much quicker process.  Which I am sure it would be with less form filling and red tape.
