    Can someone give me some advice please.

    If we currently receive PIP does a review render us as new claimants until a decision is made?

    If so, nothing has changed at all.

    Thank you

    Ok so currently I get pip enhanced rate both parts and cont based ESA with severe disability premium.

    With regard to these concessions would I be classed as a new claimant when I migrate to credit or not?

    Further it's nice that I won't be subject to the changes but it's so so unfair that any future people in the same situation as many of us now will be treated differently.

    Surely it's not lawful.

    The concessions are not great. I feel the government are pitting new claimants coming down the line against current ones. Everyone should be assessed under the one criteria. It's going to become a two tier system. Every disabled person should be treated fairly.
