Wow so it's officially a money bill according to the gov site now?
So this is all smoke and mirrors as feared.

Someone pointed out that it isn’t a money bill so far, it’s possible I’m confused about the processes. They’ve just got everyone’s backs up and trust is gone

thank you, a diagram is extremely helpful.

Definitely, there is absolutely no trust, that's the only sure thing here. That and the stress on us all.

So my 27 year old son who is still on DLA, because they were so backlogged when he turned 16, could potentially not get PIP because he would be a new claimant. How is that fair? At present he is on low mobility, but if he swapped to PIP he would get enhanced because he cannot go out alone. I've been patiently waiting rather than swap him early just for more money but I'm thinking of applying for PIP for him now.
It is not fair that old and claimants of PIP and LCWRA get different amounts. I thought this was the whole point of Universal Credit to bring everyone to the same amounts.1 -
I was just talking to dwp and he said I’m putting you down as paper based or phone . I’m not sure how you request it tbh . I would just get as much info as possible. Do a diary to show how your condition affects you. If you can get help from cab or equivalent. All you Drs letters and medical notes . I send my own in as I want my own doctor write my letter not just my assigned GP who I never see . But I think you can call them and ask for phone if paper based not possible. Others on here will know more but I’ll be calling them and asking myself. Good luck , I also called my assessment centre once appointment came through and told them I want phone and recorded . This time I’ll also record it myself 🤞

This has been so frustrating all along. It's all about PIP which is of course important but the impact on this side is also massive and hardly anybody mentions it when you see talk on it elsewhere.

It sounds like it's about us but it's confusing to me if they're doing away with WCA and seemed like they wanted to get rid of LCWRA, unless I understood it wrong. I don't understand what is supposed to happen after the deadline they want to impose on it.

I read that earlier as the freeze will no longer exist for those already claiming

I think the pip health element will be terrible for us all . I think they should be separate. Or continue to award money until we’ve gone through the appeal process.

Right so I've only just got up to speed on what's happened recently .... I've seen that these concessions will only affect new claimants ..…but here's a question , if I'm on cbesa and lcwra but NO PIP , what happens when they scrap the WCA and the many people in my position have to take the pip test to carry on getting the lcwra element ( will be called the new health element by then ) .....
Will we be looked at as new claimants for pip because we are not in receipt of it ?
Or will our existing status of having ESA , lcwra or both mean that we will be assessed under the existing pip descriptors ?
See this is what's worrying ! It's such a massive issue and has had absolutely no coverage whatsoever , I hope they make this clear
