PIP Tribunal Preparation

73% of PIP appeals succeed at tribunal. Prepare for your hearing with practice questions based on real tribunal panels.

What Happens at a PIP Tribunal?

A PIP tribunal is an independent hearing where a panel reviews your appeal. The panel typically includes a judge, a doctor, and a disability expert. They will ask you questions about how your condition affects your daily life.

How to Prepare

  • Read your assessment report carefully and note any errors
  • Prepare clear examples of your worst days for each activity
  • Practice answering questions about the reliability test
  • Gather supporting evidence from your GP, consultant, or support worker
  • Bring someone with you for support — they can also speak on your behalf

Common Tribunal Questions

The panel will ask about specific activities like preparing food, washing, dressing, managing medications, and planning journeys. They want to understand your difficulties on your worst days. Our practice tool helps you prepare clear, consistent answers.

You can also use our evidence request builder to gather supporting evidence before your hearing.
