PIP Renewal

Hello,

My 3 year PIP award runs out in February 2027. I will be reapplying again for the award.

I’m yet to receive a letter about renewing my award. Is this typical? I’d read somewhere that people can receive a letter 6-12 months out.

I recognise there’s a huge backlog of PIP applications at the moment. What does this mean/ what can I expect for my own case with wait times etc?


Thank you :)

    Hi

    You may still receive a letter to re-apply but there are huge backlogs and thats causing delays for them to process claims.

    Some existing claimants have received letters extending their awards, without having an assessment.

    Thanks for the information @luvpink that's helpful to know.

    I guess I'll just wait to see what my next letter says from them.

    2 years! Wow! That seems like a long time. Was that two years after the end date for your award? @kathy286
