Pip

[Deejojo]

My pip isn’t due to expire until my next year

But I got a firm through the post yesterday asking me to fill it in it says review 😦I’m a little confused 🤔 any help please

Well I am sure your PIP won’t be altered until the date next year as it will he e been stated on your original notification of PIP letter. I would imagine it’s a standard letter or review. I’d call the DWP a call and ask them why so early? Maybe they are simply sending early reminders and getting ahead of themselves. x

A review supersedes any award that is in place even if it is dated next year. The review forms have always been send out between 6 and 12 months before an award ends.

Most review forms are sent out 12 months in advance. Treat it as a new claim, do not just put no change, give a couple of examples of the difficulties you have for each descriptor.

Hiya, I had the same, I put 'no change', now I'm really worried

[KittyJ in reply to kt11]

I put no change in the bits where there was no change but then there’s space to add more to remind them of what help/aids you do need. I filled all these in and more.

Same here I’m not lying on form I just put no change but mentioned foot 🦶😔

[KittyJ]

Me too but I already knew they could review it up to a year in advance I just didn’t expect them to 😊sent mine back today.

I did my brothers review two weeks ago, he got a call today to say they will be extending it, same rate as before, so no face to face for him thank goodness. Just waiting for the letter now to see how long for.

Good news 😊

[Deejojo in reply to Happygranny1958]

Great stuff thank u

There are massive backlogs so they are extending awards and sending out review forms early so they have time to process them before the (extended) award end date.
