Hi @Loopydoll53

Welcome to our online community/family.

It’s great to meet you this afternoon.

Here is a “Benefit Calculator” where you will be able to get an idea of what you can apply for.

Here’s some info for you about what “Benefits” are currently available to claim for.

Please please let me know if I can help you further???

Hi @Loopydoll53, and welcome to the community!

Turn2us have a great page full of information on turning the state pension age and how this affects benefits. You may also find this past discussion on PIP and pensions helpful. Have a read, and do come back to us with any questions!

Hi you can still claim PIP after 65 if you were in receipt of it before 65 but you cannot make a new claim when you reach 65.
If you have already got a award and you are claiming your condition has got worse be careful as the DWP can cancel your award and reassess you.
