hi my partner is in receipt of p.i.p of £22 per week, she recently broke her neck in a fall at home ,the diagnosis is she should recover from this without any permanent damage but it is still to early to say for definite. Should she need to report this change to the PIP authorities ?

    HI,

    I'm sorry to hear this. You say recently broke her neck,  For PIP, you must have had the condition for 3 months and expect it to last a least a further 9 months.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
