    There's no such rate as £86.30, unless you mean standard rate both parts with daily living being £61.85 and standard mobility being £24.45, which is a total weekly amount of £86.30.
    PIP is paid 4 weekly and not monthly so your 4 weekly amount will be £345.20. There will be 1 month of the year where you will receive 2 PIP payments instead of one.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Hi Poppy and thank you.  sorry, I should have stated that I am getting a lower rate of living and the disability element. I was confused over the 4 weekly payments and monthly thinking the amount didn't add up.  Paul
