Wrong Pip desciptor chosen was created by Joey123
Hi there. I appealed the length of my PIP award and I have had it changed from a short award to an ongoing award. However looking at the descriptors chosen they have chosen the wrong descriptor for one of the activities. Now I'm sure this is just a clerical error as they have already agreed on another descriptor for this activity. Whats the best and quickest way to tell them about this. Should i write a letter pointing this out, telephone them or go through the whole appeals process again.
Kind regards
Joey

Who agreed on another Descriptor, the Tribunal panel or the DWP?

Hi there. It never went to a tribunal. The DWP changed descriptor.

Hi there. What do you mean by affected? Yes they sent me the decision letter saying that my pip award would be ongoing but i noticed they had chosen the wrong descriptor for one of the activities.

Was the award reduced as a result of the wrong Descriptor being chosen?

If it wasn't then I do not see the value of contacting the DWP, you have your award for an On-Going period.
