Hi, I am transitioning from DLA to PIP, my assessment was supposed to be Christmas eve until I informed the DWP I was going to record the assessment on an ex-police dual recorder. Suddenly the assessor does not want to be recorded!!. The DWP has re-booked the assessment for 3 weeks time whilst they try and find an assessor who will agree to be recorded. I will keep you updated.
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
Claimants have no legal right to require their assessment is recorded, it is provided as an accommodation by the DWP and the Assessment Provider, as a result, it is entirely at the discretion of the assessor whether they want to be recorded or not.
