DWP: GP letters for Personal Independence Payment (PIP) and Employment and Support Allowance
Who do I see?
We are unable to provide letters of support
Advice:
The DWP will usually contact your GP or healthcare professional to obtain medical evidence when you submit a PIP or ESA claim, the information is then sent to the DWP as part of your claim process.
We are therefore unable to provide additional letters of supports as the information we provide, will normally be included in the report requested by the DWP. We therefore regret that we cannot provide additional letters of support. If you feel that you need to update us on your most recent difficulties, then you could write to the surgery to update your records.
