Oh dear!.....Another form to fill:'(

[ninjananna]

I have just received the pip form to fill in!!!! I have sat and tried to read it through first, which is something my Dad always told me to do!! However, I'm finding everything so overwhelming at the moment and I'm sat here in tears(again). I know there have been lots of posts on here about it, but I would Welcome any advice again as I've forgotten most of it!! Thanks..xx

Sorry to hear you're struggling with the form.

They certainly don't make things easy for us do they?

I'm pretty sure that if you message mdaisy she can send you some links to help you.

Don't forget to take a photocopy of your form before you send it off, as the DWP seem to be very good at losing things.

Keep your chin up

Hi there,

I totally understand what you are going through and it is very perplexing. My advice would be to go to your local CAB who are very well versed with filling in these forms, I did with my DLA form and they also helped with my ESA form too. I think they know how to word things so that they get the best possible result for you.

Hope this may have been of some help
