PIP info out of date was created by Gina
Sorry if I already posted this but cannot see it anywhere
This wording is from the new online PIP form but the guide to the new online form does not give this wording or give points for this wording below

"How far can you walk using any aids or appliances you need?
To give you an idea of distance, 50 metres is about 5 buses parked end to end.

Walking aids and appliances include walking sticks, walking frames, crutches and artificial limbs.

A wheelchair or mobility scooter does not count as an aid or appliance for this question. If you use a wheelchair or mobility scooter, please answer this question by telling us how well you can stand and move without using it.



I cannot stand and move even using my aids or appliances

Less than 20 metres

Between 20 and up to 50 metres

Between 50 and up to 200 metres

More than 200 metres

It varies"

Hi Gina
I have answered this question in your other virtually identical post.
Just to explain posts have to be checked by moderators before they are visible to the public. Sometimes there is a bit of a delay before us Mods can read and answer posts.

Thanks but I am really baffled. I have looked at the section on 'moving around' both for the new online version of the PIP form and the old version and neither has any connection to what is on my online PIP claim form. I copied what it says on the online form they sent me above and I really can't see how it connects to that section in either of the guides here? They just aren't the same questions at if you look at them. So I have totally different questions on my PIP form to anything in the member's guide here? I don't get it? Either I am being dim, missing something or your guides just don't bear any relation to the current questions. The questions I copied above are phrased totally differently, they ask different things to the things in your guides and so it is not possible to see how the points are allocated

Hi Gina

I cannot answer your question as I have not seen the online application form, I have todate only worked with the paper version.

I have been told by claimants that they are given an option of online or paper version.
