PIP EVIDENCE SUBMISSION

Having had DLA since 1995, the amount of medical evidence i could produce in paper form is immense!
Q: Can i simply refer them on my PIP Application to previous years'DLA App forms or will they not have them ?
The last DLA App I completed was in 2005 generating an indefinite award.
Thanks.

We always recommend that you should send in anything that you particularly wish the assessor/DWP to see. Assessors do not routinely have access to paperwork associated with previous claims. In addition, DWP destroy paperwork after a certain period of time (we have heard varying reports as to how long this actually is).

Please be aware that the PIP descriptors are very different from the DLA ones and PIP was deliberately made harder to get. The criteria are explained in our PIP guide
