Looking for advice about how best to apply, please; my dh is increasingly struggling with any situation where he needs or might need to interact with humans. He has hearing aids, but as I am sure you are aware if you use them they are not a miracle and still means he finds making sense of what people are saying incredibly difficult, relying on me more and more to help.
His last assessment with the audiologist was 2 years ago, his next is due in February. Being in Scotland, he will apply for ADP. Any advice on whether to make a claim now, being as his condition has worsened and should qualify based on the criteria, or to wait until his next assessment which should provide additional evidence to back it up? If he applies now is he even likely to get a decision before February?
Also he cannot do an interview over the phone; will they arrange an in-person interview, do you know? Thank you
