Would they reassess my PIP before I retire?

Silvia59

I've just been reassessed for PIP and been awarded "for an ongoing period". In the explanation they mentioned that "When we made our previous decision we gave you PIP for a set time because we expected your needs to change. The information provided shows your needs have not changed and are continuing based on the medical evidence received. I decided to award you PIP for a longer time. Your rate of PIP has not changed.

I have been on DLA and PIP for mobility and daily living needs (enhanced rate for past 11 years).

I will be 66 next year and not sure if it means they would re assess me before I get retired or I will continue to get the award at the same level after retirement.

Thanks

Ongoing means a 10 year award, which means you won't be reviewed again before you reach state pension age.

Hi @Silvia59 welcome to our community 😀 And congratulations on getting an ongoing award for PIP!

As Poppy mentions, you will not be re-assessed just for reaching Pension Age 🙂
