Help on pip review

KatieG

hi , can anyone help me on scoring 4 points in a single category for mental health as my pip review is due soon 😦 I’ve already sent the forms back months ago though just waiting to hear back from them now.

Hi, this won't affect you yet. There are plenty of descriptors where you can score 4+ points for mental health. I do myself in the mixing with people descriptor. Everyone is affected differently though, so you'll need to check the descriptors for yourself.

Currently this change is planned to start from November 2026.

You can contact PIP to ask for a copy of your last award to see where points were scored before. 🙂
