FAQ which explain where everything is

Welcome to Benefits and Work

In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ

My full name is showing, how can I stop it?


If it will help there is a section in the PIP Claim guide that covers the assessment and questions you are likely to be asked. See

www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/help-for-claimants/pip

You can choose which room to hold the interview in and the assessor has no right to look around your house without your permission, although most don't actually ask.

I would recommend that you try and have someone with you, if only for moral support.
