Hello

I am just submitting my appeal form for PIP and I have been going through the descriptors with great care. I note some discrepancies with the DWP/Capita descriptors and those shown on this site. I'm getting a bit confused as they don't match up and my brain is in melt-down. The the local welfare rights has different wording, too. Yikes!

What's going on?

Best wishes

I am afraid you'll have to give us more information for us to be able to comment.

The Descriptors are defined in the PIP legislation and have not changed since the benefit was introduced, so there should be only one version of what they say, however, it is possible for there to be different interpretations of what they mean.
