Another pip assessment

Exactly. As I said. Descriptor 1 (e) unable to undertake any journey because it would cause overwhelming psychological distress. If you cannot go out because you are so severely anxious about how to find and access a toilet urgently due to your medical conditions to the extent that this prevents you from going out for the majority of the time this would be relevant to this descriptor. I'm not talking about people just needing the toilet when they're out and about.2

And also received a text from the dwp saying they have received my report that was quick1

Thanks for your update @teddyjohn89. How are you feeling about your assessment? It sounds positive that it was quick. At least it sounds like a relief for you

Just a quick update i have received my pip report back i know its not the final decision but i have scored 18 points this time around was 11 last time2

hi hi I have had my PIP assessment recently. Received a txt from DWP saying they have received my assessment. Do you receive a copy of points scored before your decision ?1

@Vonny58 you can request a copy of the report by contacting pip however it can cause additional stress if it's not what you were expecting
The report isnt the decision it is only a recommendation and the decision maker looks at the report as well as everything you have sent to make a decision2 -
No, they don’t automatically send a copy of the assessment report. If you want you can ring PIP and ask them to send it. However, it’s not always the best idea to do this because it often causes more anxiety than you need. Even more so if it’s not what you expected to read.Vonny58 said:hi hi I have had my PIP assessment recently. Received a txt from DWP saying they have received my assessment.

What i did is requested it from pip and they tick the boxes on the report you just compare that to the point system online and get a idea of how many points you have1

Thats what i did last time anyway and it was right so maybe this time will be different im not sure but you do worry about it before it turns up in the post1
