answer text <p>Officers from the DWP Visiting Team, as appropriate, visit claimants to support them in making an application for benefit or for on-going administration of their claim – for example if they have a change in their circumstances. The majority of visits conducted by DWP take place in a claimant’s home. However, an officer can also arrange an appointment at an alternative place, such as an information point (surgery) or hospital, if a claimant is deemed to be vulnerable or is in need of additional support when making an application for benefit or for on-going support. We may also visit centenarians to confirm they can receive and appreciate a congratulatory birthday card from the Queen.</p> more like this
