Well, they have done a great one this time. Pip review form landed on our doorstep today, date to return 22nd dec! The chance of us getting medical evidence in time allowed is slim especially given time of year.
One initial query - we changed our car a few months ago to one that is higher up and therefore easier to get in and out of. We couldnt get an automatic so is a manual but is one that doesnt require changing gear very often. Just wondering if it is worth mentioning the change of car or not?

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

I wouldn't, the PIP Descriptors do not consider the claimants driving and it can be used as a negative by assessors, especially if the car is not an automatic.

Another quick query - would i be doing wrong to state that it would be of benefit it we had the bathroom altered or a shower room put in upstairs as it would help us considerably?

Rather than say this you need to explain why the claimant cannot use a standard bath or shower.
