Hi just had dreaded app for my adult son pip review via telephone for next week. The appointment letter address to me as I act on his behalf and am his appointee
. My question is do I answer the questions on his behalf or he is expected too?

Many thanks

Hi Lindseyf

You are his appointee and therefore you have been mandatated by the DWP to answer questions on his behalf. Do not, under any circumstances, let an assessor bully you into letting them speak to him. He does not have to give his permission - he has already done this when you became his appointee. You say not the assessor. Some assessors will try dirty tricks and say that it's a safeguarding issue and they need to speak to him first. This is rubbish, and you refuse politely. Best of luck

Thanks Bis
This is the first review thats been undertaken and Im not sure what to expect.....as its a review do they just ask questions from the form or is it like a brand new claim when they can ask anything .....the review was sent back last june so its taken about a year of worrying!!

Hi
Not sure if Im posting on here correctly.....is a pip phone review basically going thorough the form or is it like a new claim and they can ask questions not on the form? I have never had to do one before so am unsure what to expect? We are very nervous and anxious and not sure what to prepare?

Many thanks

Thanks so much.

Since we did review form over a year ago my son has got a little part time job at the club i go to gym at......if they ask I got no problem advising what he does (it's never really busy and he mostly clears tables and collect glasses} however if they ask do I have to give employers details? I'd rather not as don't want to bother them with questions from department!
