Hi @Eddie1 and a warm welcome to the community!
What questions do you have about the PIP changes?0 -
I was given a ten year reassessment so it's due for review in 2035. I have now reached state pension age and I was wondering if I would have to be reassessed in 2026 and be expected to hit 4 points in the daily living allowance for my PIP to continue being paid..

Hi @Eddie1, we are still waiting for all the details to be confirmed, but from what we understand, those of state pension age are not expected to affected by the changes.

With reaching State Pension age you PIP award automatically switches to an "indefinite" award, but you already have that. In addition you will only get "light touch" reviews. The proposed changes are just that, but as Rosie has said it thought State Pensioners will not be affected anyway. Also you would not be affected until your next review either. Relax!
