Universal Credit and PIP

Good morning. I have a question, please ? If you are entitled to PIP does it affect the UC cap limit of 16K? Based on my research it doesn’t.

Also, is the PIP maximum duration of 4 weeks holidays outside the UK in any 1 year or is it any 1 trip?

Thank you. Have a good day.

you can only leave the country for maximum of 4 weeks at a time but you can go on multiple 4 weeks holidays during the year. Most holidays abroad I have been on is 4 in a year. I’m on pip and esa and this wasn’t a problem. I have a deputy at social services and it wasn’t a problem with him too.
