PIP ftf assessment! was created by Linda

Hi. This is my first time on the forum. I went for my face to face assessment yesterday. Am currently on DLA. I found it very stressful. Was bombarded with questions. After answering "how long can you stand for "and answering "about 5 minutes" . (Meaning about 5 minutes before I need to sit down because of my painful arthritis.) Then just as the assessor had said we were finished, she asked matter of factly , how long it takes me to shop . I answered 20 minutes. Obviously I meant , it takes this long, because I need to stop and rest every few minutes, and I also walk slowly, . But I didn't get to say this, as was on way out as she asked this question. IAfterwards I thought maybe she was trying to trick me up with my answers. If I do not get the mobility part of PIP, do you think I should go for M reconsideration.?

It's impossible for us to say whether you should challenge an adverse Decision or not only you can make a decision about this.

You can get an idea of what the Decision might be by requesting a copy of the assessment report from the DWP office dealing with your claim.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems
