Hi,

Glad the experience was better than you expected. Just to let you know the people who fill in the paperwork don't actually make the decisions. The work is outsourced for the assessments then that is sent away and someone else makes the decision about entitlement and how much.

I really hope it goes well for u. Will be keeping an eye out for the results.

Just a little side note I have a colleague who left being an assessor because of how unfair the system is

Plenty of hugs and best wishes.

😊

Hi Georgiegirl1966 I am really happy that it all went well for you all. It can be a really stressful time running up to the assessment. I'm really happy you got someone nice as I did I've got middle rate and high rate for life. So I hope your sons outcome is as good as mine if not better. Take good care Jan101 🤗🤗🤗xxxx

Hi Donnabrain my sister and I have it on going on our return assessment letter and that means for life with the pip. Call them and they can confirm.

ongoing with pip means they can choose to reassess anytime,but probably won't,maximum ten years

Not what you're looking for?
