Hello,
I've been claiming UC and have recently been sent the questionnaire to fill in relating to my disability. I have autism, mental health issues and a physical condition that can affect mobility.
I've filled in the physical side of the questionnaire as that's pretty straight forward and I can do almost all of the activities. I'm really struggling with the mental, cognitive and intellectual capabilities. As I'm autistic I'm really struggling to understand what the questions are actually asking, for example, asking if I can work an alarm clock... is this literally can I work an alarm clock or is there hidden meaning? I've read that they're not actually asking if you can set an alarm clock but it's just so confusing.
I'm worried they'll assess me as having capability for work if I put the wrong thing and don't answer the questions properly.
For context I was hospitalised last year for my mental health (was in hospital for 2 months) and then was sacked from work on the grounds of not being fit for work so I genuinely believe I should be awarded LCWRA but I'm worried I'm going to answer the questions wrong. Any advice?
