Hi. I live in an independent living complex with Social Carers on site and availabe 24/7. My family have always helped me with my personal care and with shopping and cleaning . I spoke to the Social Services yesterday and explained my disabilities . They are coming to see me to assess my needs . My question is do I inform the DWP that this is happening as I have a f2f for PIP on the 10th October at my home.

Thank you
There is no specific requirement for you to notify the DWP about this, but it may help your claim if you do although you might want to wait until you have an idea of the result of the meeting before doing so.
