People on PIP never need to report any of these changes to the DWP

Comments

Personal Independence Payment (PIP) can be claimed by people over 16 and under State Pension age who need additional help with daily living tasks or getting around as a result of a long-term illness, disability or mental or physical health condition . ‌

The benefit has been replaced in Scotland by Adult Disability Payment (ADP) for new claimants, which follows similar eligibility guidelines as PIP. ‌

A successful claim for PIP or ADP is worth between £29.20 and £187.45 each week, some £116.80 or £749.80 every four-week pay period. Both disability benefits are designed to help with the additional costs of living with a disability, long-term illness, or physical or mental health condition. ‌
