morning mods, I know your busy people, but need some help.
I am sure I read in a posting where someone queried if a pip report could be useful to support an esa claim and vice versa. We know that they have different criteria so it may be of limited use unless it specifically shows something relevant.
But I seem to recall that the new esa50 had wording changed around the mobilising descriptor/tick box options which had something to do with it being not good to just tick a box if you claim pip for 0-20 or 20-50 mtrs
Sorry, brain fog day that's as clear as I can explain it. I can recall that the advice was there was guidance available to look at in the members section.
I don't have a Scooby what i'm looking for. Can you point me in the right direction. Even if its to tell me you have no idea what i'm on about.
The issue of using an ESA report for Mobility is the potential difference in the criteria. Whilst an ESA assessor may record a shorter distance than the 50m that ESA looks at, they usually don't so claimants hoping to score for only being able to walk 20m may be at a disadvantage by including an ESA report that says 50m.
