DLA and PIP

stuartvolvo · Aug 8th, 2015, 16:13

Hi,
As anyone that receives Disability Living Allowance may know that Department for Work and Pensions are now changing Disability Living Allowance (DLA) to (PIP) Personal Independence Payment. I have already been asked to start the process, so hopefully if I change over ok, and I am accepted for this PIP, I will make a write up about the procedures to help others out. It does not matter if you are on DLA Indefinitely or for a fixed period of time, Everybody that has DLA will need to change over.

Regards
Stuart

The proccess is easy Stuart, my wife went through it earlier this year and was sorted out very quickly (by DWP standards !)

My wife went through this earlier this year and went smoothly.

Not everyone has to convert. If you are over 65 and receiving DLA indefinately, you stay on DLA.

Only if you were 65 or over before 8 April 2013, wife changed because her circumstances had got much worse.
