If the reasons you're claiming it contradict the reason for your PIP then yes they can. For example, if you're claiming for a physical disability and you're caring for someone that also has the same disability, it can go against you.
I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -
