PIP LAW CHANGE - Tribunal Win.

Hi

Been a while since I last posted .

I appealled a decision last year , that I did not meet the criteria for Activity 9 , 9c - 4 Points for engaging face to face, under the Supreme Court Decision MM vs DWP 2019 .

This morning I attended Tribunal . I was in there a while and called back in .

The Tribunal allowed my appeal. !!

They have awarded 4 points for the decision in 2019 , where I got 2 points for Activity 9 . I got Standard Rate .
Awarding 4 points changes that to Enhanced Rate.

Very pleased. Its been a long haul. A long wait too.

I would say to anyone , dont give up, keep going.

The Tribunal were satisfied that I had supplied enough evidence from , GP, MH team , Family and Friends regarding my Depression and anxiety disorder.

Something , I have always felt was ignored or not considered by the DWP. They insisted, and kept repeating throughout , I had 'mild' depression and no Mental Health illness, even though the medical evidence clearly stated severe depression and a confirmed dx by a Psychiatrist.
I have been consistent throughout my applications saying how this impacts me daily.

So its done. The guides have been a god send. Thank You.
