First Anniversary Name Dropper First Post I've been Money Tipped!
in Disability money matters
Awarded PIP today standard care enhanced mobility till 2022, whole process took 8 weeks .

On DLA originally 20 years ago I was on mid care high; mobility, but for the last 17 years mid care; low mobility.

Have to say that the assessors report was fair and mostly accurate and was obviously accepted by the DWP DM.

    That is great news and will be a relief to some people to see that the assessment process can be fair. Thanks for updating us with your news.
    The comments I post are my personal opinion. While I try to check everything is correct before posting, I can and do make mistakes, so always try to check official information sources before relying on my posts.

    Agreed. It is not what a lot of people want to read, or at minimum to accept, however it is obviously a fact amongst all the negativity that is usually the norm.
