PIP Form " How your disability affects you" was created by TheMerlin486
I have received the forms for submitting a PIP claim however, I am unable to write with sufficient legibility (due to limb impairment) and wonder what options I have to submit a claim. Is a word processor attachment acceptable?

It is perfectly OK for you to type your answers and attach them as extra pages to the PIP2, just make sure that each page has your full name and NIN at the top and that they are numbered, we recommend "page X of Y" so that it is easy to see if pages are missing. Make sure you clearly mark on the form where your answers are and on the relevant page that you are answering question X.
Attach the pages to the back of the PIP2 using a staple or make a hole in the top left corner and use a treasury tag, string or ribbon to the form. The pages need to be easily detached so that they can be scanned by the DWP.
