I need some advice please, if someone can help? Thanks

My assessment period is from 24th April to the 23rd May. I receive a Pip payment on the 22nd May. When I provide my savings update on the 23rd May, is the Pip payment counted as savings? Or do I have until the next assessment period to report what is left over?

    Hi @Pav38 and welcome to the community. It should be the balance remaining at the end of the period that counts as savings. Hope this helps 🙂

    hi holly in another post which i put up Kimi87 said you would report what’s left over in the next assessment period which would be 23rd June. You would not include it in the current assessment period which is 23rd May. Can you confirm this is correct?

    Hi @Pav38, @Kimi87 is incredibly knowledgeable (a lot more than me with the system ☺️ ).
