hi all

I currently have a blue badge which ends in a couple of months on the date my pip claim ends. I’ve submitted my pip review forms but as you all know it’s taking around a year to process reviews. So how can I renew my blue badge?

Thanks

    If PIP haven't made a decision closer to your end date, they'll write to you 35 days beforehand extending your award for 12 months.

    You can use this for your BB although the local authority may issue the BB with an end date to match your extension.

    What I did in this situation is sent the letter telling me my award was extended for up to 1 year. I also sent a copy of the original award letter which showed where I scored the points. The was because the letter they send you extending your award is just a basic letter and it doesn’t show any of the points.
