I think that PIP and ESA health assessments should be done by the person's General practitioner (GP) or specialty doctor. It's as if the DWP don't trust the GPs or specialty doctors to do this.
Many thanks Stu for such an informative & helpful channel. I learn so much from you, particularly whilst navigating PIP. Thanks also for reading out my comments - I thought it was important to encourage others who’ve had poor PIP assessments to persevere with a Tribunal. I’d like to provide voluntary practical assistance in this area, though I’m not professionally qualified. Do you have any suggestions on which organisations to approach or how I could accomplish this please? (Will be writing to MPs, petitioning & spreading awareness about the dodgy PIP assessments etc.) All the best.
I have cptsd from severe child abuse by a narcissist mother. This put my central nervous system in ‘fight or flight’ mode, permanently. This lead to my fibromyalgia, chronic pain and fatigue. My last living relative died and left me money. I bought a house with that for me and my daughters. DWP did not like that I’m being currently investigated by the criminal division. Because my relative was in the states and put that money in the states in a trust. Because of the different banks involved to transfer money, I think the bank reported me to DWP. I’m on UC and it’s been over 6 months waiting to hear about disability payments. I don’t have any money anywhere now and depend on benefits to buy items to help with my mobility like certain coffee, sugar etc., containers I can open etc. eventually I think I will need either mobility scooter/ car as my lower back and hips getting worse. I have to wait and see what happens to me.
Thanks as always Stu for taking the time to answer my question. I think you and I have similar views on the way this government do things. They do what they do whenever they want to and change the rules if they don't suit them but for the most part there's nothing we can do about it. I think the vote against them poking around in ppl's bank accounts will get plenty of support but I also think it'll get totally buried as well. Sorry for being a downer,just not feeling great atm. Hope you and Becky are well,take care.
Redacting items on your bank statement may all be very well now but once they start allowing themselves to start dipping into everyone's accounts at will, there won't be much point. :/
Hi and good evening With pip for the older age person receiving this benefit. Am due for a review in 2027. My health condition has increased since my last face to face. Will I have to have another face to face or over the telephone. I am just turned 70 Thanks in advance
Heard dwp is adding disability premiums to uc, the ones you got on the legacy benefits. Is this for the pip daily care recipents who transition from legacy benefits to uc from feb 14th onwards or for every one on pip daily care receiving uc?

Thanks Stu. I applied for PIP and was turned down even though the The Social Security (Personal Independence Payment) Regulations 2013 quite categorically state that I should be eligible according to my circumstances. I then requested a Mandatory Reconsideration and was denied again. I then requested an appeal to the Upper Tribunal and that has been rejected too. I don't know what to do because the criteria is very clear and I am eligible and meet the required criteria with ease and they recognise I have health issues. Do you have any suggestions please?
Hello, if you are on legacy benefits and receive HB,ESA income based, in support group and also pip. They saying that it will be starting to move over to UC. Could you tell me when would it start with the above? Thank you Stu your doing a great service for the general public who otherwise would worry
Hello i have my esa assessment a week Wednesdays time i have not got a copy of my assessment questionnaire how do i go about obtaining a copy for myself any help appreciated thank you.
Hi Stu. Quick question: I am on Universal Credit and am getting limited capability and work related top up. When I reach retirement age, which will be in 9 months, will the limited capability still continue to be paid to me, or will I lose it? Thanx, in advance for your channel and the advise you give.
Ive just received my ADP decision and backpayment (2K). The issue is that they havent given me anything for mobility. I have severe agoraphobia and this doesnt seem to make sense so Im considering an appeal. My query is if they reconsider it can I come out with less points would that mean I have to pay back the backpayment?
Hello sir, thank you for everything you provide. I am a blind person. I follow you. Please, can you make a video about severe disability Premium and the conditions for benefiting from it? Thank you very much.❤
ask and you shall receive - ua-cam.com/video/FxpyHf_Eqmg/v-deo.html - also let me know if you have any difficulties with accessing the video as I could send you an audio version.
I've just received my hearing date, and it will be 2 years and 3 months since I applied. On my appeal they couldn't get through to my phone and the original assessor was lazy and repeated the same sentences through every question and the same stuff was used for appeal.
Hello Stu I understand that the transition payment on universal credit will rise on the 14th February and keep rising with inflation which is good news! Could you do a section on this on your next programme? I'm interested if and when they are going to start making payments to people that loss money over the years. I don't think a lot of disabled people realise how important the court case taken by two people over two years ago. Many people including myself could get payments over £4,000. Regards John Hughes
Hi John, would definitely love to do a feature on this. I'm wondering where you are finding your information, if you could tell me? I've been digging as deep as I can since your last question on this and apart from rumours here and there I'm not finding concrete information yet. I'm sure you're correct and I need to get some good sources. Any help much appreciated. stu.mcgoo.info@gmail.com
@@StuartMcGoo Hello Stu I found the forthcoming plans on Birmingham live as part of the feature on DWP announcements. I'm not sure how reliable it is but I would think rightsnet would do a update nearer the time. Thanks for your message! Regards John Hughes
So many people on the wrong benefit. Nobody can get pip. There's no point sitting here talking about your benefit because you already know answer you're getting nothing you've got to fight for it People are going to the court tribunal for the first time you're going to be waiting up to one year That's the rules of the game. It's your first tribunal and you're going to be waiting one year I bet my comments get removed always removing my comments
Hello I'm new to your stream but finding it very informative. I receive universal credit and pip where can I get some advice as I'm due to receive some inheritance soon and want to buy my house for security but am worried about loosing my benefits
Hi, Can both husband and wife be carer of 2 SEN children and 1 dependant adult (all of them gets DLA and care allowance) would they be allowed to get UC?
I first applied for PiP in Feb 2023. Waiting for a Tribunal date. So fed up with no end in sight. Now stopped work on health grounds. Fed up! Wish there was an answer to How much longer will I have to wait?!? @stuart
I know I'm not Stu but that's a kinda how long is a piece of string question. Everything takes too long sadly. Just be sure to stay safe and reach out for help if you need to in the meantime. I do now and it's not as scary as I first thought it'd be. Dealing with the DWP is kinda rough. Just my thoughts and as I said I'm not Stu so you can totally ignore me if you want to.
I didn’t have to fill in any forms for pip or limited capacity for work, not 1. They referred me for a assessment which was done over the phone and that was it. I didn’t get pip which I didn’t even try to get & Im not bothered as I do work part time sometimes. I did get limited capacity for work & work related activities though 👍

Not in their interest as they would end up paying more claimants the benefits they deserve.
Thanks for the advice it's a minefield DWP .😥

Thanks for being you!

Sadly, anyone can buy a disabled toilet key from eBay and Amazon etc.

Cheers stu very well said as usual
Thank you Stu for answering these questions
Hi and good evening
With pip for the older age person receiving this benefit. Am due for a review in 2027. My health condition has increased since my last face to face. Will I have to have another face to face or over the telephone. I am just turned 70
Thanks in advance
It will probably be over the phone as most are done this way now, but some are still face to face.
Heard dwp is adding disability premiums to uc, the ones you got on the legacy benefits. Is this for the pip daily care recipents who transition from legacy benefits to uc from feb 14th onwards or for every one on pip daily care receiving uc?

Will i be able to work and still get the same amount of benefit when the new disabilty working rules come about?

That's a long time. Mine was 12 months.
@jaynekittycat9252 I know it's ridiculous that I have had to wait so long
@@karlmyers6518 At least if you win, you will get 2 years and 3 months back pay. Good 🤞 luck.
can i apply for pip with chronic asthma
Universal credit does not include council tax
Yes you are quite right, I misspoke
i have been informed if you got rewarded pip before a certain date
your not going to be forced back in to work by the dwp is this correct ?
Cannot believe they are stopping these families depending on these to help families
I have Q Stu. Why do you keep removing comments?
