Hi Stunninglady27
What you score on your self assessment for PIP will mean nothing, its what the HCP scores you when you have your assessment. The decision nearly always goes with what the HCP puts on the report. I have completed the self assessment and I scored enough for enhanced for both. My previous PIP assessments I did score enough for enhanced, my health has not improved and this time I scored 0 for both. I did an MR and my mobility was changed but the daily care wasn't so off to a tribunal I go as I do not agree with the decision they had made. I am now waiting for a date which can be a year or more, it depends on the area you live.
Good luck and I hope you get the news you want. -

hayles123 said:Hi I have received my pip report and all my questions have been answered with an A does this mean I have scored 0Hi,Yes, i'm afraid that's a recommendation that no points are scored which means no award recommended. They mostly go with the report, it's rare to go against it but you still need to wait for the decision.Once the decision is made you have 1 month to request the Mandatory Reconsideration. You need to put the request in writing stating what you disagree with and where you think you should have scored those points and why. Adding 2-3 examples of what happened the last time you attempted that activity.I'd advise you to contact a local advice centre near you for help and advice.

Hi ellied2004,
I fully understand. I went for an assessment and have had the higher rate of mobility taken away and I am 67! I gave the healthcare professional additional medical evidence. I was given 4 points. I was shattered but I have asked for a Mandatory Reconsideration and have also written to my local MP.
if you feel injustice go all out to get your award. The office staff at the DWP are just pen pushers and have no experience regarding medical matters. The assessments are a joke!
Good luck. -
Hi ellied2004 welcome to the club I got a copy of my assessment report and after reading it I was looking for the name of the person how had done it and was in shock that it was not ( Hans Christian Andersen ) as it was like a best seller fairy tale I know the next thing will be that assessors are never wrong ever in there life there like a all knowing oracle who can take one look at you know all there is to know about you and your day to day life.

I do so wish there was some way to get errors put right and sanctions against the DWP, seeing this farce is heart breaking, on my partners first claim was done just after she got out of hospital, the HP was understanding and never gave a musculoskeletal exam, when we requested the report it clearly stated this, when we received the award the DM stated as she had a full musculoskeletal exam and was found fit, MR did not correct this, just plain lies.

Many assessment reports are not fit for purpose. All we can do is appeal. 71% of appeals succeed. I went from standard both components to enhanced both components after appeal.
Appealing is a hassle but usually worth it in the long run.
