PIP was created by Mary Mackay
Is it possible for me to request a reassessment ? My condition has detereorated quite significantly and I feel I should be asking for a higher rate of PIP.
My spelling has not improved either.

Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explain where everything is
Welcome to Benefits and Work
In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ
My full name is showing, how can I stop it?
You can but I would first check whether you actually meet the criteria for a higher award, I'm afraid a deterioration in your conditions does not always mean that this is the case.
Have a look at our PIP Claim guide to see the criteria you will need to meet.

If you reasonably believe that you can score the points needed then write to the DWP office dealing with your PIP claim notifying them of a change of condition. Understand that this will mean a new PIP2 form and almost certainly a face to face assessment, any new Decision will replace your existing award.
