PIP is for those under state retirement age. It is the same thing but called 'Attendance Allowance' when retired. So you only claim one of them depending on your age. x

Thanks a lot coughalot. I knew you would know the answers on here. It is often more useful coming on here to you than approaching the people who are supposed to know!

PIP under 65,attendance allowance over 65.with PIP you can also claim the mobility part if you need it,with attendance allowance you can't.Loads of info on government web site.Sooki.
