Assessors Qualifications was created by kah22
A quick question. When attending a PIP face to face can I ask, am I entitled to know what qualifications the assessor has? What do I ask for?

They should tell you whether they are Physiotherapist, Nurse or Doctor, but are unlikely to explain any further.

At the interview what can be said
Can we ask a question rather than for clarification?
Can I take written notes, or is that at the interviewers discretion ?
Can I add to an answer that my friend may give if I feel her answer is incorrect or incomplete and would not help my friends case
Have you any links which will show what a friend can and can’t do at the f2f ?
As always thanks for your really useful answers

Yes the claimant can ask questions.
Yes you can take written notes
Yes you can add to an answer by the claimants but be mindful of the assessor and if they ask you to be quite then you must or you risk the interview being curtailed.
Sorry, no links.
