Hello community I'm new today.
Looking for some advice. I am waiting for a tribunal as I had lost both of my high rates of pip. Now I was diagnosed with cancer grade 2.
Can I put a new pip request in or do I have to wait for the tribunal . Thanks

    Hi and welcome

    Do you have any award ?
    If you have no award in payment then you can put in a new claim.
    If you do have an award and your new condition has meant a significant change you can put in for a change of circumstance ( supersession )

    Either of these will result in a new decision being made and have the effect of limiting the tribunal decision, if any, up to the date of the new decision
