The best advice I can give (having been through it my self) is when your speaking to them always give your worse day. Only tell them the worse that you get. If you don’t they will mark you down. I found that out the hard way.
good luck.
No problem. Any other questions you have please do ask. You have got this.
Thank you, I will. its in 10 minutes
Any time. Let us know how you get on.
Thanks this is all so helpful
Oh and don’t over exaggerate!
No do not say anything about good days! Only tell them what you are like at your worse. If you do not they will say you are fine and there is nothing wrong with you.
Even if you do get your PIP you can still volunteer for about 12-14 hours a week and it will not effect payments. It maybe more but I am playing it safe.
Maybe if you mention "good days" they might jump on it as reason to turn it down
Thank you that means a lot. Should i say i get good days as well or just talk about bad days? The thing is im still hoping to do a little bit of part time work if i become well enough so im worried if i dont say that theyll accuse me of fraud or something. UC are aware im looking for part time work
