    That would be September 2020, unless your award was made by a tribunal then it will be early January 2021.
    The renewal forms are shorter than applications for the first time, for some reason I cant find an example online, did you keep a copy of your last application? 

    2024 The year of the general election...the time for change is coming 💡

    @charlotte441 they should have, phone them tomorrow (8 a.m. is best before they get busy), it might well be that due to a possible backlog caused by the current situation that reviews won't always take place as they should (i.e 6 months before) your award could be extended. You could start now doing some research into PIP and the descriptors and where you fit into them etc.
