We have a client who currently receives LRC (and HRM) on DLA who states that her condition has worsened - If we ask for a revision would it prompt a PIP claim?

Was your client under 65 on 8 April 2013? If she was 65 or over at this point, she remains on DLA now.

See p.599 CPAG 2015/16 for more about DLA to PIP transfers.
