It is crucial that you return you PIP forms by the date given to you by the DWP when they extended the period. Failing to do so will likely result in your PIP claim being closed and your current DLA claim four weeks later.

You can send further information to the DWP and the Assessment Provider later so don't worry about it not being with your PIP2.

Medical evidence is important but your GP is not always the best person to provide it, if they are not involved in your day to day care they may be unwilling or unable to comment on your daily care and mobility needs. That said, you should still discuss the situation with them to see what they may be able to do to help you, but make sure you have a good understanding of what they might be able to do, especially if they indicate that they may charge you for any letter or report.

Whether your GP helps you or not it might be worth your having a look at your medical records at your GP's practice, to see whether there is anything worth your printing and sending on.

Charging for medical records

Once the DWP have your PIP form they will forward it to an Assessment Provider to arrange a face to face assessment, you will be notified of this and once you have this address you can send on any further information, we recommend sending copies to both the DWP and the AP.

I assume you have already been using our PIP Claim guide to complete the forms, but for completeness they are on the following link.
