I’ve recently been sent a pip review form  to see if my needs have changed but they have stayed the same I have sent my form back to them within the timeline set, does this mean they will stop my money or are they just checking that I got no changes from the previous period?

    I think it is silly they review you as your illness/ disability’s ain’t going to improve anytime soon if anything they may get worse especially haven’t to be questioned in the form all over again then having to wait on a an outcome. they can see from your GP medical files that nothing has changed or you got more problems than before.

    Although you said nothing has changed i hope you didn't just fill the form in and tell them "no changes" It's advised to always treat a review like this as a new claim.

    Once a decision is made your award could either, stay the same, be increased, decreased or stop completely.

    They don't access your medical records so they won't see any of those. Sometimes they may contact some on your list of contacts but it's rare and they don't often do this.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
