You could request the assessment report, this should give you a better idea of what you scored and why.

Please think very carefully about challenging the Decision, you have absolutely nothing to gain and a lot to lose, I'm not even sure that an appeal would be accepted as the panel are only concerned that the correct award has been made not how it has been made, as long as it is it is legal.

Hi,

Could you tell me where I request the assessment report from? ... unsure whether I should contact PIP or DWP decision letter address? Plus, is it better to request by phone call or letter?

Thanks

Hi,

Please could you tell me if the assessment report is the HP medical report or the decision maker's report/reasons for decision?

Thanks

Thanks

You want the DWP office dealing with your claim, the address should be on the Decision Letter.

No it's a separate report produced by the assessor.
