Hi Alan @APenny and welcome to scope, if you are getting PIP when you reach state pension age you will continue to get it

Hi and welcome
As above if you get it now you will keep it
If you don't you can't claim after retirement age and also you can't get any increased award for the mobility component -
Thank you janer1967 and woodbine for your answers they where very helpful thanks again !!!
