Hi apples6

At this moment in time I have no idea, all I can say is for you to contact the DWP and ask and then let us know.

If you have a PIP form to complete then use this forum to help you, members on this site are always willing to offer you advice, so, if you have any queries you want to raise, ask, we will not think the worse of you, there is no such thing as a silly question.

We have a very substantial guide on the PIP process and it will walk you through every step.

You can either download it - it is very large (93 pages)
www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/help-for-claimants/pip

or you can read each section of the same guide online in separate parts.

Dear Gary

Thank you for your generous reply appreciated.
I actually did early this aft after submitting Q ring DWP after long phone wait got a really pleasant young man, and talked it through and he got what I was saying: though did not know the answer.

My Q was wider for the wider group of Benefits and Work 'patrons' and not specific to ..at this moment in time.
Unnecessary: stress as I put in my Q with all sorts going on.

FYI the pleasant DWP man had the memo re No f2f assessments on 5*March 2020 11 days ago. as he read it all out............Best wishes Apples
