I am just beginning to fill in my PIP application form, having been on DLA for several years. Because I suffer from severe clinical depression, a neighbour has to come in and do various things for me, such as cooking - I don't pay her, she just does it out of friendship. I want to put this on the form, but my neighbour is a very private person, and very shy, and she's terrified at the thought of DWP staff questioning her. Can anyone tell me if the DWP is likely to do this? Thank you.
There's no reason for the DWP to contact your neighbour, the only people that they might contact would be any medical contacts that you include in your form.
