Hi im on job seekers allowance would that affect me getting pop as I have got a home vest soon do you have to tell them what other benefits in on we're just worred I'll lose it and won't get extra support I need

PIP is a non means tested benefit. It makes no difference whether you claim other benefits or work full time. If you meet the criteria for an award it will still be paid

Entitlement to PIP is about your functional ability to do the ten daily living tasks and the two mobility tasks. I've read plenty of PIP assessment reports and none of them ever mention the claimant's other income so I wouldn't worry about it.
