NO PIP Or ESA Face to Face medicals needed

Hi, recently I filled in a PIP Form & also ESA form around the same time & sent in all information I had about my partners case, most of the information was old from years ago, from medical records & past ESA, IB reports etc., as her conditions are the same & but have worsened over the years, also included a support letter from our local MP & some photos of her injuries over the years that relate to her mental illness disabilities, also a 24 hour diary & a week diary & a carers report.
I emailed Maximus for ESA & emailed ATOS for PIP, Shocked to find out, that my partner thankfully does not need to have a face to face medical for PIP or ESA.
Just waiting for the outcomes for ESA & PIP now, hopefully it's good news, that they have done both assessments by paper based.
Thank You to this great site, I've studied your forms & learnt a lot about this process & how it works now, hopefully she is put in the correct ESA Group & is successful with her PIP Claim, will let you know the outcome.
Thanks
Antony.

Hi Antony and thanks for the update. Here's hoping you don't have to wait much longer for a favourable decision.

Hi Again,
Would it be ok to do a SAR now, whilst waiting for decisions on both ESA & PIP, as mentioned already my partner, doesn't need to have face to face medicals now, which ATOS & Maximus confirmed.
What information should I request to see, Like ESA85A etc what codes are there for PIP & also where do I send the letter too? is it my local jobcentre?


Thanks in advance,
Antony.

If you are just after the assessment reports you can make the request over the phone, you can do it now for PIP but should wait until you have had the Decision for ESA.

If you want all of the information used in the Decision then you should issue a SAR to each office that dealt with the claims after you have had the results.
