    Hello @Gremily64 and welcome to the community.

    PIP is neither income or work dependent and so moving out of work should not affect your claim. If your condition has significantly worsened you might be entitled to a higher award. However do have a read around community about the issues many face with PIP, as you may find yourself fighting to keep your current award.

    If you are on other benefits you should keep them up to date.
