The DWP are issuing a new kind of DLA claim for starting this month, here is the adult one >>> and<<< here are the notes to accompany the claim form. I don't yet know the scoring mechanisms for this new form but I expect them to be similar to the PIP test descriptors & points such as those PIP descriptors here 
Hope this helps someone !

Further to #1 - I've now compared the old & new side by side and it seems to me to have been largely designed to ' scope ' into areas generally expressed in broad terms as mental health issues. All in all its just a clearer layout, but that of course will still terrify people and will make it no easier to fill in.Disclaimer : Everything I write on this forum is my opinion.

I had the child version of this new form to complete and I seemed to find it much easier to complete (i e the form gave more guidance) than the old form.There are times when parenthood seems nothing but feeding the mouth that bites you Peter De VriesDebt free by 40 (27/11/2016)0
