DLA To PIP update Award

Hi Tinytim,
I filled in the forms on behalf of my husband, with help from this excellent site. I went into plenty of detail & I also 'typed' a statement detailing the problems he has, including all his previous DLA notes/number & requested them to peruse that file. I also typed a statement from myself, saying who I was and the assistance that I provide (care). I honestly think this summary helped, as the main points were clearly printed.
I had no idea that the living allowance would be awarded, the questions I felt were not that applicable but the assessor thought different (she was a nurse) We thought that the mobility was dicey as she did not seem to take a lot of notice of walking/mobility but she scored us 12 points & it was the car we wished to keep. Like you in your later posts, the standing & sitting & walking was so much easier to demonstrate as we were in our own home.
But thank heaven for this site, I did not expect such rigorous assessment. We did not feel overconfident after the assessment, as she gave nothing away.
