PIP review form with citizens advice

More

Hi there,
Just looking for some advice please.
I saw citizens advice this morning for help filling my pip review form out and I’m just a bit worried as reading through when I got home there didn’t seem to be a lot of detail filled out at all.
Is this normal for a review form?
Just worried as I’m still waiting for my appeal/tribunal hearing next month for my original claim and don’t think I could bear to appeal again if my award is refused due to not enough information.
Thanks for any advice
J

Hi Jensy

The CAB never do write a lot on the forms. They are under a lot of pressure to support as many people as possible, and unfortunately, they don't have time to learn much about you; hence, there is so little detail. If you are worried that there are things missing that you think should be on the form, then you should add them, even if you do it on separate pages and include them as an attachment with your name and national insurance number on. If you don't feel able to or you don't want to do that, then you just have to trust what they have done. Some people write reams for their forms and some people write very little. It's not the amount of pages that gets you the award - it's the relevance to show how you meet the PIP criteria.
