Hi

Hi are the pip changes only affect new claiments?

Hi @emma85 PIP won't be affected with the changes implemented. It is now reliant on a review to be completed by Sir Stephen Timms in conjunction with the disabled community and that's expected to be completed by Autumn 2026. We will keep close to what's happening and will update as much as we can.

You might be interested in our The Universal Credit Bill becomes law. Here are the changes to disability benefits you need to know — Scope | Online Community discussion where members are talking and sharing about the bill. There's also a link to our website where there's a blog that explains what's been introduced, and where we stand now. I found it a really helpful read. Breaks it down clearly.

But no one won't be affected at this time no

Not until the review has been completed 🙂
