Pip Assesment

[patrice123]

Had my pip assessment yesterday after waiting 9 months , it was done by a nice paramedic i was in for an hour and a quarter. i felt so depressed when i came out describing everything that affect my daily life. he said i will hear the decision in 4 to 6 weeks, fingers crossed

I think many feel the same Patrice, I know I did. It's a dose of our reality isn't it what we can or rather can't do any more? Anyway, I hope you're successful & you hear quickly, you'll be on edge til you do & waiting for the postman each day! I heard I was awarded it in just a little over a fortnight & that was over the Christmas holidays so hopefully it's just a stock answer the assessors give & you'll hear sooner.

Do let us know won't you?

I know, it can be a shocking reality check. Hopefully it'll all be forgotten when you receive the brown envelope.

Hi I had a pip assessment but was only awarded 6 points daily living and 4 points for mobility did a mandatory appeal and still same points I then got in touch with a group called fightback and they have taken my case on at the moment have an appeal waiting for a court date but fightback are confident it will be decided before court amazing lady Michelle has so much knowledge if you need advice that's who you need to speak to they fill in forms etc they are not funded so always need donations I really wish I'd gone to them at the beginning rather than doing it by myself well worth a look if you need help xx
