Hi everyone. My nephew has lost his PIP claim after an assessment. However, he is appealing against this very harsh decision. Does his carer need to stop claiming carer's allowance or will it stop automatically? Thanks in advance

    Hi and welcome

    It should stop automatically when the PIP stops but as with all things DWP probably best to  make sure to avoid overpayment.

    Ok thanks very much. Wasn't sure what to tell his carer as he is appealing the decision
