    Hi @foskett - & welcome to the community. Many people work & also get PIP. The only problem in the future might be if the work you do contradicts what you put in your next PIP form, i.e. when you get a review form for PIP.
    PIP is not means tested, so any wages you get don't matter. Does that answer your query?

    Hello @foskett and welcome to the community, how are you? 

    As mentioned above, PIP isn't means tested and therefore won't be impacted by receiving income from working. Unless your job contradicts the reasons for which you're receiving the benefit.

    I have moved your discussion to our PIP, DLA and AA category, where you may find more useful information.

    HI,

    As advised, no it doesn't. Although any other benefits you may already be claiming maybe affect by your earnings.
    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.
