    You don't have to although it is sometimes beneficial letting them know, leave a message under the 'payments' category just explaining you have been awarded PIP along with the rate and length of award.

    Hello there @Golla46 as bg844 says, you don't have to let them know, but you can if you like. 

    If there's anything else you need, just ask :)
