My son has autism. We asked for review form but he won't complete it. How do we stop the claim?

Hi My sons autism seemed to of improved with the help of his sister, His dad died recently which seemed to speed up his able to dos. He wants to try living independently near his siblings. we rang pip to inform them his care had changed and they have now sent out a review form .We and my son feel he would not score enough points now to claim pip. My son does not want the form filling in and is refusing to engage in it. Do we just not send the form back to stop the claim? Advice please what to do in this situation

No need to send the form back. You can just ring and tell DWP that you no longer wish to claim.

we did ring and tell this they sent the form.. Would a letter do?

Hi and welcome

If your son wants to stop claiming he can end the claim

However I would try and get the form done as he may still be entitled and the money would help him living independent

I'm not sure if just not sending in the review form would end his claim

Which did you tell them - that his care needs had changed or that you wanted to end the claim?

If you don't return the form you will first get chased for it and then if you still don't return it the claim will close.

Yes we rang and told them we did not think he would score enough points now as care had changed and wished to end the claim. They then sent this form out but my son does not want it filling in .

They probably thought if would be in his best intetest to have a review as you said his care had changed

Call them again and specifically say you want to end the claim
