WHO CAN BENIFIT FROM THE CHANGE MADE LAST YEAR SUPPOSED TO BE FOR PENSIONERS LIGHT ? For 10 years

joyclyn

I am nearly 71 and have not been informed personally only heard people talking about this change unsure if it happened . My form will be sent mon12 recorded as my pip stops nov21. Dreading the waiting and praying i wont have to appeal /another court case. It must cost alot of wasted money the amount of appeals. Its hard to think that your form is read and whomever it is that reads them decides if in there eyes you are sick enough to be awarded ots diabolical i will say no more x

Hi,

The 10 year ongoing award for those of state pension age are for those whose conditions are unlikely to change, it's not for all those of state pension age and above. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/thousands-of-pensioners-to-benefit-from-pip-assessment-overhaul

Good luck with your review.

hi joyclyn, i dont think its just a case of some-one reading your form then making a decision because if it were i would of got nothing as the 3 times ive aplied for pip my forms have been sent back a right mess as i get worked up, angry and annoyed. i know its not a good time for anyone when applying or renewing these things and we all get upset, annoyed or like me angry. try not to worry (says me ) and as i found out there are a lot of very helpfull people on here to help/guide you through.

joyclyn

Thank you all for your time pip form sent away . Waiting game now i cannot belive 2017 my DLA got changed to pip but no points so went tribunal sep/oct 2018 received high rate Living allowance . Up to nov2020 how time flys will my old pip claim be taken in to account or is it all a new claim i truly wish i did not need this benefit but sadly i do . I feel like a Beggar it does not help having to do this when your already sufferng mental Health on top of all physical ailments. Enough said my hand wont let me continue sorry joy x

Hi @joyclyn, we're always here for you to voice things. You're not a beggar, the money is there to support you. When you have a PIP review they will look at it as a new claim, so your old claims won't be taken into account. I hope this helps to clarify things.

@joyclyn I know it must feel rotten at the moment but please try to relax about it. Logically if there’s nothing to be done about it then there’s no point in worrying, and if there can be something done then there’s also no point in worrying. I know it’s easier said than done.

i saw a wall plaque yesterday on tv and it said ‘today is the tomorrow we worrried about yesterday and all is well.’ Pretty sur that’s what it said, makes sense. Often what we think will happen is far worse than what actually does happen.
Best wishes ?

Best of luck for the outcome, let us know how you get on. Yes, try your best to relax and put it out of your mind

Fingers crossed now for the decision

You can request a copy of the report 7 days after assessment

It isnt the decision but will show recommended points and they go with report in most instances
