Today I have received new forms to fill out, saying 'we are looking at your claim again'. Is this usual? I assumed they would send a renewal pack near to her 18th birthday, but she was only 17 in March!!
Any thoughts?
When does the current award end?
I'm afraid the DWP are reassessing the majority of PIP claims a year in advance of the claim ending, the legislation allows them to issue a reassessment at any time and for any reason.
This is a full reassessment of your daughters claim. so the PIP2 needs to be completed in detail and you need to supply relevant supporting evidence, even if it was used in the original claim.
The PIP Descriptors have not changed but some of the DWP guidance has, so you should make sure that you use the current PIP Claim guide.
