PIP mixing with people was created by Catwil
Hi. I've recently had my PIP re-assessed and in the information I mentioned the how I only scored 2 points previously for mixing with people when I rely on support for this. They have now agreed that I need support to mix with people but have not backdated this further than one month. I read your emails and believe I should fall in the catagory of people who are owed a back payment for getting this wrong when I first applied for PIP. Nothing was mentioned about this wrong decision despite me pointing it out to them when they looked again at my claim. Do I have to wait for them to get round to it in their own time or can I prompt them to look at this mistake now? I would be very grateful for your advice with this matter??

Hi DibsBo

I cannot answer your question as I do not have enough information, you need to seek help from a local welfare rights worker. In answering your question, when were you first awarded PIP, if it was over 13 months ago then you are out of time to appeal the original decision.

You don't say what difference this has made to your award being granted for extra support.

You can find your local Welfare Rights Worker to help you with benefit query by clicking on the link below and putting in your post code, it will then come up with a MAP with a list of agencies.
