    No wait for your award to come taking around 8 weeks at the moment
    If you inform them they will more than likely re assess you and if you have got a good award you will lose it

    Yes it does say this but first you need to look at the descriptors to see where you can score those extra points for a higher award. A worsening of condition doesn't mean you'll be awarded Enhanced rate for either. There's also no low rate PIP, it's Standard or Enhanced.

    You really need expert face to face advice because no one on an internet forum can tell you if there's any risks to your current award.

    Reporting a change of circumstances mean more forms and another face to face assessment.
    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.
