Hi my pip renewal form has arrive, i have just read through it to familiarise myself with it and it tells you what to send and what not to send, it says don't send a GP supporting letter, my Doctor has always done one for me and i think this is one of the reasons why i have been reasonably successful in the past,plus this web site of course. Do i get her to write one and send it anyway or do i do as i'm told and not get one? It also says don't send spread sheets in with how your condition affects you. This has all changed over the past 5 years. Surely a GP's letter supporting how you conditions affects you is good supporting evidence. Just need advise as to do i or don't i. Many Thanks

Hi German Shepard

The idea is that a GP does not send information that the DWP already has about you. An up to date report will be fine.
