Hi, my name is Dunnsy59! Will I keep getting PIP when I retire?

Dunnsy59

I was awarded ongoing enhanced care and mobility in September 2022 with backpay from April 2020 after paper review from evidence supplied and form for review sent to me. (Originally, I was on the lower amounts for both for 6 years from January 2015). I am 66 in May will I be sent for another review? I have not been sent any information regarding the 25/26 increase, unlike ESA Support Group (contributory), which I know will stop when I reach pension age and start receiving said pension. Thank you for any any advice, as my anxiety is in overload.

Heya @Duddsy23 and welcome to the community. 😁

If you're receiving PIP when you start claiming your pension, then PIP will continue. usually they'll start rolling things over into ten year awards.
