hi I have recently been awarded pip standard rate to dec2019 at the time I was in receipt of income support I was told I would be able to apply for SDP that I should of been entitled too at the time
I have called and filled out the form over the phone today
I’m just wondering if anyone can help / advise …. And let me know how long it took for your claim to be sorted when you have done this. Thank you !

Usually putting SDP in place is quite quick but if you no longer receive IS I guess it may take a bit longer.
What benefits (if any) do you now receive?0 -

@calcotti
thank you I’m not sure if I will be entitled to this as I changed to UC myself it wasn’t a transition or change of circumstances I thought it was easier to deal with everything at once than differently but at the time I was still appealing PIP I didn’t realise there was such thing as SDP

So you may be entitled to SDP transitional element for those first three months.0
