PIP refusal

Everything you write when you fill in the pip form has to be backed-up with medical evidence.
Supporting evidence is needed as we could all write write anything on the form.
They award points based on proof.

It doesn’t help before I only got diagnosed in April so hadn’t seen anyone about my autism until then cos I didn’t know I was autistic. So what medical evidence do you send in? 

The evidence they want is how your autism and other conditions affect your ability to function in normal life from a practical point of view.

Only been a member of this community for a couple of days and not yet diagnosed but some of the stuff I read here really strikes a chord with me . I have had an issue with socialising/recognising people for as long as I can remember and I've never known why. I regularly don't recognise or notice people I know when I'm out and about and end up being ostricized as people think I am aloof/doing it intentionally. It has had a massive negative impact on my life.

Thank you I will go through it again it took me so long to fill in the form and I thought I had covered things but I can’t of. 

The pip application form has a list of questions asking you how your disabilities affect you in different situations.  You need to answer each one giving a relevant example and provide proof.  The big problem is the proof because often it's just your or other people's opinion.  And not hard medical evidence.  For example I have great difficulty recognising faces and telling people apart, a form of face blindness.  It causes great difficulty at work.  But I cannot prove it.
