Most PIP ongoing claims but they are understaffed and behind. If your condition has worsened and are not IRO the top rate for care and mobility you can ask for a full re assessment. They can also reduce your award following re assessment
I am on the top rate now, this is a review, not unusual it has taken a year apparantly , i dont want yet another in person assessment , i have had several of them over the years , just want to know where i stand as my current pips runs out in june , she said if they havent processed my claim by then then they extend the payments by one year , what a stupid system it is

Mrs had hers done over the phone and renewed within less than a month, no idea why yours is taking a year.
 
Many PIP recipients are in the same position as Kaz. Waiting months and months past their review date.

They are under instruction to say no at every turn , at one assessment they got a tape measure out and measured both my wrists to make sure i wasnt lying about not being able to use my bad one , no word of a lie , they are scum

If i lose pips it has a knock on to my other one and that has a knock on into council tax and car tax etc , devestating
 
The sad reality is that increasing numbers of people are struggling to cope with modern life and the modern world, and that has, and will continue to manifest itself in increasing mental health issues and a breakdown of law and order. I’m not sure it’s limited to this country either.

I think all this technology is slowly sending us nuts.

It’s not the technology more the way it is being used to create mistrust and a here and now based on lies.

When I was assessed, I did a lot of research online beforehand and was alarmed at the number of claimants had said that what was said at interview, was not what was wriiten in the assessment report. I also learnt that if you ask to see the notes written at assessment, they have to show them.

When I went in, I took a colleague (to ensure fair play) and said before we start, I want to see everything you type today to ensure what I say is accurately reflected in your assessment report, and I want an email copy. Thankfully, I had an assessor who was, not only happy for me to read the notes, but also allowed me to make changes if saw fit (which I made several).

What was expected to be a daunting assessment, was fairly good for me, but I know there are many horror stories out there.

My advice Kaz is, if they haul you in for an assessment, do as I did and make sure you agree on what is written before you leave.

Good luck
