I claimed pip for my son . On the claim I put learning disabilities and Autism.
The learning difficulties are diagnosed.
After a lot of digging I’ve found out the autism isn’t diagnosed. I found this out by mistake when a doctor mentioned it wasn’t on his records.so I started inquiring why.
I’d put it on the forms as the special school annual review document stated Autism as his main condition and i believed this to be true.
I also remember them saying his autistic.
at the time i had no idea how autism assessment work so did take there word for it.
Think the annual review is connected to the statement special needs which is now called ECHP. So not sure if it’s a legal document.
i would have sent this as evidence.
His needs are still the same,every thing I said regarding support and help he needs are accurate.
I know PIP isn’t based on diagnosis but Am I in trouble?
