    Hi,

    Please be aware these changes are not set in stone yet.

    If they do go ahead, and you score 12 points for daily living, but not 4 points in any single descriptor, then you will not be awarded PIP.

    People who currently have LCWRA won't be affected by the PIP changes for many years, if at all. LCWRA isn't quite 'forever' though, they can still reassess that at any time. They may stop reassessing it as part of the new changes.
