Can you get pip if you are in receipt of lwc benefit.
Or does universal credit take it from you

    PIP and UC are completely different benefits and one doesn’t affect the other in a bad way.

    Hello @ElaineMcH I can see Poppy has answered your question. :)

    I just wanted you to know, I've popped your post into our PIP, DLA & AA section, in case you had any more questions or queries.

    No, PIP is ignored as income.
