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

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 -

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.Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK. -
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
