    It may be worth asking if you can take it to you local JobCentre for them to scan and forward to PIP.

    Hi, could you tell me how long it took to update, as  I sent my marriage certificate last week so they could update their records into my married name, but I have a car waiting for me and can't collect it until they update my surname
