Incapacity for work questionnaire/ Additional Sheets

Buttercup

Thanks so much for all the help and advise, I found the Guide that Curry Queen posted really helpful. at the end of the guide you can print off forms to complete and send off as additional evidence regarding your problems true/false and then a more information in the box. I'm not sure if it I should fill these in or not, I would be grateful for any comments.

All Work Test Calculator should give you an idea of whether you should meet the test threshold.

However the Decision Maker will be reading your IB50 with a mental tick box in mind. If you read through what you have written can you yourself see the relationship between what you have written and the IB test descriptor statements. Would someone who doesn't know you, or the way you normally talk/write read through your IB50 and see the behaviours relevant to the test descriptor statements set out.

Of those last pages the only descriptor statements you need to respond to are those which apply to you most of the time. The only point in replying to the ones which apply some of the time, or none of the time would be show you are making an honest report rather than one trying to score on all points by creative thinking.

It will only be necessary to provide direct answers to them if you think it isn't clear, from what you have already written, which of the descriptors do actually apply to you. If someone who hasn't met you could pick out from your form the relevent descriptor statements sufficient to meet the threshold, then you have done well and you won't need to include the extra pages. If it isn't fairly clear what points you have addressed then it would be safer to reply directly to them.
