Pip review

Hi. I hope im ok to ask this question. My husband has been on PIP since he had his kidney transplant in Jan 2017, well he was awarded it in the March. He has been sent a review assessment, i was wondering if someone could tell me that if his assessment is not approved, and he loses it, does this mean that his payment of PIP will stop straight or will it carry on to the date that its due to finish which is march 2020.
Many Thanks

It’s very common to be reviewed between 6 months and a year before a current award ends.
Unfortunately the advice given by @poppy123456 is correct. If they decide not to award him after his assessment in November, his PIP payments will stop and won’t continue until March, as the new decision overrides the old one.
Equally if an award was to increase after a review, you wouldn’t have to wait until the end of the previous award period to receive the increase.
I hope that makes sense but please let us know if we can help with anything else or you have any further questions.
Best of luck to you and your husband.
