I am waiting to be assessed for PIP.  I am so very worried.  My friends who have had DLA previously have all been kicked off the scheme.  I dont hold out much hope.

    @Tylerluciefrankie Hi Stella. In contrast I know of people
    who are better off after switching from DLA to PIP. It’s important to remember
    that each application is different and so you should worry less what has happened
    to other people and concentrate on the criteria. How much do you know about PIP
    and the scoring system? You may find     this
    page     helpful: it includes a link to a self-assessment. A very warm welcome
    to the community!

    Did your friends appeal? 65 per cent of appeals are successful.

    There is a thread on here How to prepare for PIP assessments, some pages down.
