Which to claim

having been claiming PIP for over two years I was having a conversation with another claimant who has informed me that a person can claim PIP for either the daily living part or the mobility separately as she had claimed the daily living part only. But I said about question 13/14 going out and moving around

    There are two components to PIP and a claimant can choose to fill in either or both sections. I cannot understand why a person would choose not to complete both parts, even if they are convinced that they would not qualify an assessor may have a different perspective

    That’s what I said, I thought that you had to fill in all the application form, but not so just the part you want to claim so if going for the mobility part just answer questions 13/14 dosnt seem right some how.
