PIP and what the law say you score points for

PIP and what the law say you score points for was created by robby
I wonder if anyone could please advise me with a question I have on PIP? I notice that with each question on the PIP form, 2 points are allocated in each question if an aid or appliance is used in connection with that particular activity. In this case, it maybe possible to gain 8 or possibly 12 points with the gaining of several points with several activities. Would it be possible to score enough points in this way to satisfy the DWP and PIP and would the DWP allow for this? I was just wondering if this could be a case for an appeal. Thank you.

Hi Robert

Yes, you can score for using aids or appliances on more than one question, but you have to show that you have a need for them. How many points you would gain it is impossible for me to say. If you believe the DWP have ignored your need for aids, then this may form part of an appeal against their judgment.
