PIP ASSESSMENT

Had my home visit pip assessment this morning. The assessment took over 1 hour.

I asked the guy if they do all home visits now and he said that the person who looked at my claim form must have said I needed a home visit.

I now have 5 - 6 weeks to wait for the out come......fingers crossed. Marian x

Good luck Marian,the fact that it was determined that you needed a home visit possibly bodes well for the outcome,i hope you had a fair assessment and you are successful in your claim.

Hi Skis the guy was really nice and I fealt at ease talking to him.

I have heard so many bad stories about the assessors trying to trick you. I think when they know the case is genuine its much easier, thats my opinion.....I hope☺. Marian x

i agree and it seems like you had one of the less cynical assessors and hopefully the result will be positive,x

Hope the decision is in your favour, Marian. As they thought you needed a home visit, that is a good sign, as already said.

Thanks Rayswife x

I am still on DLA although I fall within, just, the cut off. How much longer are these assessments going on for?
