    If you are not able enough to complete the form and have no source of assistance or indeed don't want to seek assistance you are already half the way there in failing

    That's no way of helping someone who doesn't want help but, for anyone who does, there are online resources like https://www.facebook.com/groups/278260135547189/?fref=nf
    who are very supportive and have loads of advice about claiming different benefits.

    Not true ive delt with them before, I couldn't attend because of mental health problems then because I didn't attend I didn't get paid, its a catch 22 trick if I had attended they would have declared me fit for work and not got paid. THEY ARE PURE SCUM!

    IT IS PERFECTLY REASONABLE THAT THEY STOP YOUR BENEFITS IF YOU FAIL TO DEMONSTRATE YOUR ILLNESS WHEN ASKED.

    Oopps, caps. CBA to re-type, don't take it personally.

    Is taking 2 "old fashioned" cassette records to an assessment permitted? One tape can go to you and the other the so called HCP.

    As do most AA applicants - fail miserably.

    Mind you I do have experience of my wife's AA claim. She had her AA1 form filled out by the Welfare Rights (Social Services) after they came out to assess her.
    She never had a F2F, the DWP wrote to the social worker who told them all about the difficulties my wife had and what equipment had been supplied.

    She was awarded the day and night rate indefinitely - so yes in some cases you can get a good result.

    A link for that please, there are presently around 1.5m receiving AA so seems pretty unlikely.
    It's nothing , not nothink.

    Cassettes or cds are acceptable.

    Just as I'd added him to my ignore list!

    I did report several of his endless postings over the weekend (as, I guess, did we all).

    How long does a PPR last, out of interest?

    What's a PPR? I know what I hope it means...

    The OP may not be far behind him, he's swearing at people on his other thread today!

    Posting Privileges Removed. A ban, basically. You can read more about them in the link above.

    I kinda hope it's permanent. He is the reason I am using the site less & less.
