UC - Will it include my PIP payment?

Spangles1963

Hi there - I'm quite new to this forum. I'm just about to start the migration process from ESA to UC (got the letter 3 days ago). I also receive PIP monthly. I have been told that PIP is not one of the benefits being moved to UC, therefore can anyone tell me whether my new UC payment when it starts will include my PIP,or is PIP paid separately? I know UC will paid 4 weekly,and I was hoping that my PIP would be paid on a different date,so as to spread my money out over the month. I would appreciate any advice on this,thanks!

PIP is seperate to UC and will continue to be paid according to your usual payment cycle.

Ah right! That's a relief. Thank you.

I’m new to UC and thought this myself, but I never received my pip payment this month, my new UC payment breakdown was sent to me just yesterday showing my pip payment on it. So in my case, my pip payment isn’t now separate, it’s part of my one UC payment each month.

I'm confident my advice is correct without evidence to the contrary - I've been advising people for years and never heard of this happening.

I was awarded PIP last year while on UC, nothing changed with my UC payment, my PIP isn't on my UC statement and the PIP is paid separately.

Would you be willing to post a screenshot (with all personal information blacked out)?
