PIP silly question
Please forgive me, I’ve been out of the welfare rights loop for a few years….
I can’t find anything on line relating to adult DLA supersessions and claims for PIP. We’re in Manchester - does a DLA supersession request end DLA at this point, requiring a claimant to claim PIP?
If so, I’ll leave well alone!
thanks
DLA reassessments for PIP are extended to Manchester from 17/11/14 and this includes requests for DLA supersessions.
Right, thanks
So, if we’re doing a DLA supersession for a higher award of either component then it needs to be in before 17/11/14 or it’ll be treated as a new claim for PIP, and DLA will end. Have I got that right?
I’m not sure. I wouldn’t count on it.
