Very short pip assessment -should I worry? was created by mummyto5
I had my PIP assessment last week.
I was called in and asked to confirm my conditions, I remembered two of them and she asked about two more.
Was asked simply if I could read. I replied 'yes I can read'
Was asked if I could think of a bill I have and how it is paid. Took me a few moments but I answered.
Asked who I live with.
If I can cook.
What aids I have.
Asked to do some gentle exercises. Couldn't do the bending/getting onto table and explained why.
Was in and out of the whole building in 20 minutes.
Assessor was very friendly and nice.
Why was it so quick and short? Is this a concern?

I had a 20 minute assessment.
Not much was asked at all. She didnt go into detail. Simple questions.
Is this good or bad?
She was super friendly and seemed sympathetic.

I would try not to second guess the Decision, I realise that this is easier said than done.
How the assessment went is a poor indicator of what the Decision will be, if you are still concerned then you can contact the DWP for a copy of the assessment report, but this can itself add to your worries as Decision for PIP claims are taking over 8 weeks in most areas.
