Fora DLA to PIP transfer the PIP decision then ends the DLA claim following which the PIP award begins. What you have been told is correct.0

But it wasnt just a transfer it was because of a change in circumstances if i was on low rate pip and and reported a change then was awarded high rate it would be backdated0

It still means you are transferred from DLA to PIP. What you have been advised is correct.0

You are not the first person to ask the same question in the past week. It's been the rules since PIP was introduced in April 2013 that transferring from DLA to PIP, even when you report changes, there's no money owed.
