Hi N110,
Welcome to Benefits and Work![:) :)](/media/kunena/emoticons/smile.png)
You don't state what stage of the PIP assessment process you are up to.
However, If you are to request a Home Assessment you should do so formally in writing explaining why you require one and why you could not make the return trip to/from a PIP Consultations Centre.
You could do this on a separate A4 page and include it with your PIP 2 Form.
If you can also obtain a letter supporting a Home Assessment from your G.P. explaining why your limitations dictate that you require one, I would also attach copy of that to the A4 page to be sent with The PIP 2 Form.
It is far better to get this request in as early as possible in the process rather than waiting for them to potentially arrange a F2F at one of their Centres then having to fight that !!
If you are at the stage where you have already returned your PIP 2 Form and they have made you an appointment at an Assessment Centre, but you want a Home Assessment, you should contact your PIP Assessment Provider (AP) (ATOS/Capita) by E-mail/Telephone :
Contact Capita.
Contact ATOS PIP (Top right of page)
If you are unsure who your PIP AP is, you can check : Here.
They will probably insist that your G.P. FAXES them a letter supporting a Home Assessment.
You can re-arrange a PIP F2F Assessment once !
