It's because your payment got missed being issued so they issue it by faster payment to ensure you get it.

There's no right or wrong words to use when filling out any forms, i'll guarantee you that!



Putting as much information as possible about how your conditions affect you and having some understanding about the PIP descriptors is all that's needed.



Why on earth people think that using the correct words help, i have no idea.

Poppy12345 your getting me wrong I explained about how it effects me but the assessor didn’t take much notice of how it effects me she looked at me and as I wasn’t kicking off and crying and I was polite she couldn’t award me the pip even tho I have been told I should qualify for it for my mental health everything is said in the report.

_shel I normally get paid on this day 20.03.2019 but it’s normally £254.30 and I was told of job centre as I’m on universal credit esa will be stopped and I will get it monthly

Did you send evidence stating how your conditions affect you against the PIP descriptors?

Who told you you should get it?

If you are going down the mandatory reconsideration route I strongly agree with Alice (as usual!) that you should seek accredited help.

And do it sooner rather than later as places like CAB are extremely busy

They very rarely contact anyone for any evidence, the onus is on you to make sure it's sent to support your claim. It's your responsibility to prove you qualify not theirs.



I'm not getting you wrong at all, there's no right or wrong words to use when filling out the forms.



I also agree with the advice given, to get some face to face advice.

Not sure they are the best person to advise on the intricacies of PIP.

As we are all saying get advice now. There do seem to have been some misunderstandings of the process and what is needed.
