Weird Letter From DWP ? was created by billhan
Had a letter from DWP, from local Jobcentre Plus.
"Notification of Performance Measurement Visit"
The person signing letter say they need to come and see me next week
"to review your benefit claim and check that the DWP is paying you the right
amount of benefit".
Long list of things they want me to have available for checking.
At the end is the man's name and under it
"Performance Measurement"
Is this normal or suspicious? never heard of this before.
Do I have anything to worry about.

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

We have seen a lost of these recently, most are the result of random selection, some are due to reports on the Fraud Line, if they are coming to see you then it is most likely the former, as they usually get the claimant to come to them when it is the latter.
The interviews usually last about 30-60 minutes and they will likely have a look through your bank statements and ask you about your income, it is not specifically related to your health but you may get a few questions about it, but don't worry too much as the person will not be a Disability Assessor.

Thank you so much.
This is calming news.
The way you have explained it makes sense that it is probably just
a random check.
