what happens if I lose my pip?

I’m on uc and I’m really worried that I will lose the tp.
will this trigger a review with uc?

It’s saying that it will online and I’m so worried about it now

Please advise me if this happens?

    Hi @needtoknowneedtoknow

    Yes losing your PIP can sometimes trigger a Universal Credit review as the DWP may see it as a sign your health has changed and reassess your entitlement to extra elements like LCWRA. If you were getting LCWRA because of PIP, your payments could be reduced. However, you won’t lose your Universal Credit entirely. If you're not receiving LCWRA, a review is less likely but you should still report the change🙂

    I have been so worried about all this that I dare not even reply before in case it did happen!
    I hate the review process and my anxiety makes me think the worst each time but yes, it will remain the same.
    Thanks again.
