I am a pensioner 71 years of age, I was born with Spina Bifida. I get the higher rate of PIP so will these new changes afffect me as an existing claimant?

    Take a look at the letter PIP sent you when they awarded you.

    If will say on there what get have awarded you for various components on daily care.

    If you have a 4 or more in any of them you should be fine.

    Hi @Plover53

    Although the announcement and green paper was released today it's not set in stone.

    We're now entering consultation phase which will allow us an opportunity to respond. We understand you likely have lots of questions regarding the new green paper announcement, so we've created this discussion for everyone to talk about it here - The Green Paper Discussion

    We'd prefer to keep the conversations regarding this all in one place, so as to protect the mental health of all on the community, so we will be closing this discussion. I hope you understand.

This discussion has been closed.
