PIP assessment at home was created by Rebecca Barton
Hi Everyone,
I could do with some advice please.
I have applied for PIP and stated that I couldn't cope with stairs and that I needed an afternoon appointment. I got my assessment appointment and they have given me a home appointment at 9:15am on Wednesday at home. I am not too worried about the time as they will see me at my roughest, especially as I am waking up without an alarm at between 11am and 2pm (I have M.E./C.F.S. among other things). My Mum is coming and sitting in on my assessment and will be writing down times and my answers. But I would like to know how my bungalow should look? Especially as Mum will be saying that she does all my cleaning etc (sh does do this so it is not lying) And should I take any books off my bookshelf and put them in the spare room where the door will be shut?

Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explain where everything is
Welcome to Benefits and Work
In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ
My full name is showing, how can I stop it?
It really doesn't matter what your house looks like, although it wouldn't hurt to make it clear that your mother does the cleaning.
Nor do you need to hide any books, if you now struggle to read, which I can understand, then just explain this.
