Hi all I hope you are well.
Is there a way to find out when we will be informed that we need to apply for PIP from DLA, without the powers that be flagging us for making a simple request for information?

by that , I mean- simply find out when our time is coming to be reassessed?

Hi @dinglechime and welcomeSimple answer is no, if you make an enquiry it may or may not trigger the invite. At best they won't know the answer, at worst you will start the PIP journeyBe all you can be, make every day count. Namaste

Hi, thanks for the welcome.
I thought that much, but figured asking was worth a try. -
Welcome to the community
How old are you? I’d call or email them to ask if you are about to be switched from one rate to another one without any warning. Another way of finding out what you need to know is to check the official website carefully. Describe how much your disability affects your ability to do things independently as well.
