Good afternoon
I was awarded PIP for when i got diagnosed with my PTSD, I have subsequently found out that I also have an autism diagnosis. Do I need to notify DWP on my subsequent diagnosis. Any help guidance would be greatly appreciated

A new diagnosis is not something that needs to be reported because it’s not about a diagnosis.
If you report changes you will be sent more forms to fill in and return. Another assessment is also most likely. Once a decision is made your award could either remain the same, be increased, decreased or stop completely.
You should only report changes if it would mean a change of award. That’s never guaranteed with a diagnosis.1 -
Thank you @poppy1234560
