I'm helping a friend with her pip appeals. She has already got a Mandatory Recommendation Letter notice to appeals. I am filling in the SSCS1 to send off. My friends has not made a copy of her PIP2 what are our chances to prepare for the pip appeals, I'm thinking of her to not go to the appeals instead just reply for PIP would that be a good idea or not.
Any reply would be much appreciated.

They will receive a copy of their PIP2 and other documents used in the making of the Decision as part of the DWP's submission to the appeal.
Making a new claim is also an option.
It's really up to your friend.

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

Thank you Gordon. That would be great from what she's told me how she's filled in the form she hasn't say how difficult things are for her, she can no longer do her house chores nor do any gardening someone else do that for her. Her chest is so bad she has a peak flow of 100, she can barely talk to me. The assessor took a peak flow but did not say anything to her about it, she went on her on. She has back problem also and could not bend down when the assessor told her to.
The fact that she did not say how severe her conditions are would that be against her? She's got hospital appointment coming up for her back and seeing her doctor for her severe asthma.
Making a new claim is also an option.
We'll see the outcome.
It's really up to your friend.
I agree
