    When you make a change of circumstances to a child on your claim, it is normal practice for them to reverify the child (both through child benefit, and then again to verify the PIP or DLA award). This can usually be done very quickly and it should not impact your payments.

    If they have not verified the PIP before your statement date, it may mean you won't receive the disabled child element, but once they verify your child they should owe you this money back.
