PIP award review

grancanfan

Hi my partner was currently getting PIP low care and had an award review back of december 2021 he had a telephone assessment 28th Feb this year then 2 weeks ago he got a large payment the day after his PIP payment does this mean he will continue to receive this ? And have they awarded him a higher award due to lump sum being paid? Slightly worried incase its not the case thanks

Seems like he's been awarded a higher rate. If he received the money a couple of weeks ago i would have expected him to receive a decision letter by now. If you want to know what he's been awarded then he'll need to ring PIP and ask. Also ask them to send out another copy of the decision letter.

Thanks poppy he got the payment on the 13th Feb so will ring in a couple of days if no letter comes

Are they okay if you ring up and ask?
