PIP help

[Sore-feet2019]

Can anyone tell me how to apply for PIP and what sort of questions they ask. I'm struggling at the moment to walk with such painful feet also arms wrist and fingers. I still work part time and am my mum's carer so things are getting quite hard .

You can call DWP on this number and ask for an application form...

0800 917 2222

The questions will ask you about daily activities...how your conditions affect your ability to carry out these tasks. How far you can walk.

It doesn't matter if you work or not.

Does your Mum receive any benefits? If she does you may qualify for carers allowance

Thank you. My mum doesn't claim any benefits and only allows me to go and help her.

Maybe, if she is over 65, she could be entitled to Attendance Allowance?
