I'm on dla care middle rate & higher mobility rate. Through the letter box came this white envelope inside was “PIP2: How your disability affects you” I knew this day would come from my dla being replaced. But seeing it gets me thinking of all kind of things it doesn't help my anxiety depression. Anyways I filled it in with my conditions also sent evidence of what I suffer from. GP done a letter to them aswell. So sent it off with 30 pages of records etc.. in August. Last week I get a letter back saying We're writing to let you know that we've asked for further information From people involved in your treatment or care. This has made me very stressful & upsetting as how can they ask for more. When I sent over 30 pages. It's like they don't believe me.
It is stressful, but you are not alone in being asked for extra information - sometimes they want to hold a telephone consultation with a professional or send them a form to complete so they can clarify certain issues. It's not about belief.
