So that's ENHANCED on both parts, backdated to when her DLA was stopped.

But then I read it vey carefully, and they have awarded her extra points for being unable to make journeys to FAMILIAR places, but we only said that she had great difficulties with UNFAMILIAR journeys.

I feel I should let them know this, as it's either a typo or excessive points have been awarded.
I think they are just scared of taking it to tribunal as they'd probably loose so they have awarded that to keep you happy.

My case last year I was short of 2 point to get standard PIP for living. No points at all for travel.

However before the case they called my and said after looking at it again they awarded me standard for both.

I wouldn't call them as it will take longer to have them look at it again.
