DLA to PIP query

Thanks Gordon

I saw somebody at the disability information bureau face to face and we went through the PIP descriptors one by one and he believes I have a good case and I agree. Some of the descriptors were fine but some I should have scored more points. I also want to challenge the duration of award (2yrs) as I have a lifetime disability.

Since I made the phone call for MR I've been in deep depression, unable to complete what I intend to submit as further evidence (mostly me challenging their assumptions). It's due back imminently and I doubt I'll be able to do it properly on time.

Is it possible to get a time extension? Would that have any impact on the outcome?
Alternatively, if I make it brief would that negatively affect an appeal?

I'm pretty determined not to be beaten and to be awarded the appropriate points, but I'm physically and mentally drained. If I decide it would be detrimental to my health to continue the process can it be stopped before MR.

Thanks

The four weeks for submitting further information are nearly up.

I take it if I fail to submit anything, they will just do the reconsideration without my input.

Thanks Gordon.

Sorry to go on.. but I phoned to explain, and was given a 2 week deferral.

Asked and confirmed they would not look at the decision again before this time is up.

Any reason not to trust this?
