Firstly,I was awarded pip from January 2018 untill December 2019,anyway the dreaded reassessment form came through the door in January of this year where it was completed & returned in February,surprise surprise I've had a decision this morning where they've reawarded me pip from may 2019-2022 without a f2f assessment,Is this normal practice as I thought even though it's a reassessment then a f2f would still need to take place..

@ Valleyboy, Yes this does and will happen if the information and updated evidence you submitted with your application and is consistent with your conditions, disability in relation to the PIP descriptors then a paper assessment is all that is needed. Well done if your award has remained the same.

Congratulations @valleyboy on your award. I have just recieved form through too. Did you state on your form your conditions had stayed the same or got worse?

valleyboy said:@tombcfc,no reassessment form which was completed by a support worked just contained no changes all the way through along with a copy of my repeat prescription..
The general advice on this site is to treat a review as a new complete claim sending in evidence to support it.

@twonker,well considering I was on a indefinite award of dla "since March 2000" I gather the decision makers has realised this along with requesting further information of my GP in regards to this award..
Meanwhile I'm pointing out the outcome as me myself wernt aware paper decisions could be made..
-
@twonker,I also forgot to mention that evidence to support a claim is only required if your health conditions as either deteriorated or got better..

As I have said all the advice on here is to treat every review as a new claim submitting full evidence to support it even if there has been no change.

@twonker,my condition still remains the same ie"aint deteriorated or got better" so what's the point in submitting full evidence just for a reassessment hey?
I'm sure my support worker who is a professional by the way would of done that..
My support worker also told me you only basically SUBMIT new evidence if your health related issues as deteriorated..
