awarded pip 2yrs at renewal, then month later f2f assessment was created by devito
I was awarded an extension of 2yrs at renewal. However less than a month later I'm given an face2face Assessment date in 2 weeks. Surely the award can't be overturned/challenged by an Assessment after the award has been granted.
Why would they do this is this normal practice? any help would be appreciated.

Hi Devito
The DWP can assess you anytime they like, but it is odd to be given an assessment so soon after an award. I would ring the DWP and ask why.

I was reviewed one year after a PIP award. It was only when I received my PIP paperwork (after a SARS request) that I found out my initial award was for 5 years; my Award letter stated 2 years.
I would do a SARS request ASAP. Knowing you are a victim of an internal error won’t alter your Review taking place, but may bolster any arguments you have…
Someone may have input ‘2 months’ instead of ‘2 years’.
