Claiming PIP

[BlueTit98]

Does anyone claim PIP for their endometriosis? I’d like to know how/if this affects your mortgage and things like that. Thank you!

I claim PIP and work full time the money doesn’t have anything to do with your income it’s the only benefit that doesn’t take this into account. I also have lupus and Raynaud’s but the process for applying doesn’t go off your diagnosis it’s how they affect you in day to day life. I don’t have a mortgage but I live alone and the benefit hasn’t brought up any questions from my employer or anything of the sort, it’s a payment to help you manage your conditions. If you’re worried I would maybe speak with a financial advisor about the mortgage though as I cannot comment on that specific. Hope this helps!
