Pip review text. was created by CJW04
Hi,
I’ve finally received a text from PIP - 12 months later. Saying;
This is a message from Health Assessment Advisory Service. We conduct Personal Independence Payment (PIP) assessments for the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). This is for information only, to let you know that we are managing your PIP assessment. We will look at the available evidence and will contact you with an appointment if we need to arrange an assessment with you.
Does this mean I’ll be reassessed? I received a on going award 10 years ago. This was a light touch review. I was awarded via a tribunal, and they said it’s inappropriate to fix a term.
What’s the likelihood of an award that was won via court to be reduced. I’ve added that I now have a blue badge (I didn’t 10 years ago and wasn’t awarded mobility back then).
Just rather anxious
How long is this wait?!

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

Hi CJW04
Everyone is reassessed - it just depends on what type of assessment they choose to do. If they sent you the light touch review form I would expect them to do a paper-based assessment, as it is an acknowledgement that someone's health is unlikely to improve.
The fact that your award was decided by Tribunal should not have a negative effect on what happens next. I have no idea how long you will have to wait. Some decisions are coming withing days, some weeks and some months. I'm afraid it is down to luck.

I also currently do not get mobility on my current claim.
But I added on my form that I now have a blue badge and other struggles, will they automatically add mobility if I’m entitled. Or would I need to start again?!

Hi CJW04
If you do not already have a mobility award, there's a chance they may want to talk to you about it - but nothing is certain.
