    We are right to worry but worries add another burden on our already burdensome days. I would rather be prepared for what is to come than ignore it until it happens.

    I remember spending several years worrying about the change over from DLA to PIP, finally got that done and now it's even more worry about what's going to happen next.

    And what makes it worse is that nearly all the news websites are going on about it everyday now.

    Hopefully when it happens it wont be as bad as we all think it'll be.

    Some people do work and get LCWRA, but the form isn't for saying how many hours you can work, it's about how your health affects you in relation to the descriptors.

    You need to meet one of the descriptors to get LCWRA https://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/universal-credit-uc/uc-faq/limited-capability-for-work-related-activity

    You shouldn't need to attend the Job Centre, due to being a carer you should have no work commitments.

    If you are classed as a Carer then you shouldn't have any work commitments.

    No work commitments = you don't have to attend the Jobcentre for work focused interviews.

    I love your posts. Thank you. For those of us who have severe anxiety/depression issues, your reassuring posts really do make a difference. I have even screen shot your responses and am going to save them to remind me when I start panicking again.

    Hi

    I am just thinking is there is two different between work focus interview and work related interview because the work coach said i wont need to do work related activity but will require for work focus interview ?

    Hello i did not get answer from kimmy87 or any other person about my previous question. The link that kimmy87 gave that is i think is for work related activity and i think that does not still removes work focus interview.Thanks

    I had a letter through the post and a form to fill in asking me a load of questions to see if I still warrant pip. This was middle of last year, I guess this was my pip review 🤔

    there is a lot of talking about that people with anxiety, CRPS should not be awarded PIP.

    fingers crossed it takes some time to that to a common practice.
