PIP review form was created by lottie1
I am completing a PIP review form.Not done a review form before.i am unclear about whether to put 'No change' on a question.Its the 'Eating and drinking question. I was previously awarded 0 for this descriptor. despite the fact i have mental health issues -so need prompting to eat and drink as have low mood/low energy . It hasn't changed but the last time i did a review i got 0 for that part. The assessor wrote on past pip assessments that i don't have a eating disorder,no i don't but i have mental health problems that affect my eating/drinking.I have a letter from my support worker saying i need prompting to eat and drink due to mental health issues.
Also the mobility question about Planning and following the route to another place.i got 0 on.Despite the fact i need someone with me in unfamiliar places.and have agoraphobia.I have a letter from a psychiatrist saying i have agoraphobia .Unsure whether to put would ' cause overwhelming distress ' or need someone with me in unfamiliar places as both apply to me
Should pip review be treated like a new claim? I am going to send medical evidence in .

Hi lottie1,
PIP forms should be treat as if they are a new claim. I have tried "no change" in the past before I found this site, and I got nowhere, and was awarded 0 points for everything.
You can use the guides within the forum to explain how to word things for a better chance of success.
Hope this helps,
Regards, Chris.

Hi lottie1
It is perfectly OK for you to type your answers and attach them as extra pages to the form, just make sure that each page has your full name and NIN at the top and that they are numbered, we recommend "page X of Y" so that it is easy to see if pages are missing. Make sure you clearly mark on the form where your answers are and on the relevant page that you are answering question X.
I would not split your answers across the form and attached pages, do one or the other for each activity (not question), splitting it risks the second part of your answer not being read.
Attach the pages to the back of the form using a staple or make a hole in the top left corner and use a treasury tag, string or ribbon to the form. The pages need to be easily detached so that they can be scanned by the DWP.

Thanks Gary
I am writing this because I have also similar issue. I am typing my review form.
When you said don't split your answers or do one for each activity, do you mean to answer the three questions in that activity in one additional page? . The space for each question is very small ( 3 line) which is difficult to explain in detail.
So can you elaborate please
Thanks

Hi Yesuf
As the review form has small boxes, if you have a lot to fit in the box, write your answer on a seperate piece of paper, don't forget to number the page X of Y ( page 3 of 11 ) and include your name and NINO, in the box on the review form, write in large letters see page 3.
