Hi my daughter has been on pip for ten years on her award letter it said we will look at this again on in sept 25 last year. .she didn't get any renewal forms so I called pip they said it's been put back until April 26 so not to worry. Last time I called they said it would be a light touch review ,But it's June 26 now and still not had any renewal forms or communication from pip and not had any letter to state it's been put back again .just worried because your supposed to get renewal forms well in advance .any advice please

    Hi,

    I would just forget about it until they send you the forms.

    Usually the awards get extended by 12 months at a time, so I don't know how the person on the phone came up with April from September.

    From previous posts I think I remember your daughter has the type of conditions that aren't likely to have changed. With the backlogs I'm sure they're focussing more on claimants with shorter awards and conditions that are likely to change.

    Of course, you can keep phoning up to check if that gives you some peace of mind.

    Just to hopefully put your mind at ease a little more @rita444, I completely agree with Overly. It's their job to send you the forms and I'm sure they will. I hope it's not causing you too much worry.
