Hi s,

Although your inability to work has nothing to do with receiving a PIP Award as it is an "in work benefit" and you can work full time whilst receiving PIP, (or DLA) if you feel that The OH Report will help to show that you should receive points that you have not been awarded for the appropriate descriptors, you can send a copy of it with your submission to The Tribunal Service.

Hi s,

Remember, as advised by Gordon, The Tribunal can only consider evidence that is pertinent to the time of the original adverse PIP Decision.

So if the OH Report was compiled after that date, you would have to show that it was applicable to the time of the adverse PIP Decision.

hi sharon,

i know what your going through as i went through the same thing, i wasnt able to do things but no one was believing me,i got referred for home assessment for equipment ie pearching stool etc, have you any of these?
do you have anyone who helps you preparing dinners,medication such as opening medication packets etc as this all needed to be listed.

hope this helps but the site guides really help.

Thankyou for your replys, I do need help and supervision, my daughter helps with bathing and all this went into the report, only to find that the assessor said different things to what I said. I think the system is a very unfair one. But ay oh that's there rules.
