My son has been claiming DLA. On his behalf I have now put in a claim for PIP. They have said they will continue to pay DLA until a decision is made. If they then decide he no longer qualifies, will he have to pay back?

No, you will not have to repay anything back.If he’s awarded PIP and it’s a higher award than DLA he will not receive the difference between the two. PIP will start about 7 weeks after the decision is made.
Most people have assessments which are usually by telephone. Some are video r face to face.0 -
