The 2020 claim
The 2020 claim
On 11 February 2020 the claimant made a third application for PIP (‘the 2020 claim’). As before, she completed a PIP questionnaire (on 18 March 2020) and underwent a medical assessment (on 21 July 2020). As before, on 28 July 2020 a DWP decision-maker refused her claim, albeit finding on this occasion that the claimant scored 4 points for the ‘moving around’ mobility activity. This score was plainly insufficient to merit an award of PIP. As before, the claimant made no appeal at the time.
