in PIP, DLA, ADP and AA

I've started my new job and I get pip and understand I can still claim this and don't have to report any changes,my next assessment is not till October 2027,do I have to notify or just continue receiving my payment

Thank you

    No you do not have to tell PIP that you have started work.

    Ok that's good advice

    I receive ESA and LWCRA and I know those will stop,but that doesn't effect my pip claim

    PIP is a separate benefit and you can work and claim PIP. I understand you will lose the ESA and LWCRA, but you were awarded PIP on your struggles with your disabilities regardless if you work or not!

    Thank you

    So the job I'm doing doesn't effect my pip and I don't have to tell them what job I'm doing,as my next assessment is in 2027

    Correct. Be careful the job does not contradict what you claim PIP for though, if that is the right wording.... Example - you claim PIP for a bad back and the job entails lifting heavy weights.....

    Thank you

    My pip isn't back related, it's more bathing, budgeting, cooking etc,so looking through my award I am ok to carry on
