Hi Mike1962,
Your son should still be able to get PIP when living independently. It sounds like he has had to renew his PIP award and not scored enough points. This happens to a lot of people and can be challenged.
He should ask for a mandatory reconsideration of the decision not to award PIP within one month of the date of the decision letter. He can do this by phone but it's best put in writing and send in any additional evidence he has about his daily living problems, such as a letter from a doctor or copy of a care plan, if he has one.
If the reconsideration is not successful then he can appeal, again within one month of the date on the letter.
Please post back back if you have any more questions.
Best wishes,
Michael
