    You can claim again as soon as you are denied.

    I'd recommend approaching the claim differently though as you might just get the same outcome.

    Different evidence, help with filling in forms etc if you didn't before.

    If you've been uncesseful, and you think you should have been awarded, seek some advice, Citizens advice can help or check out

    Benefits & Work are a charity with useful info on PIP etc

    If you have a particular disability, then a charity that deals with that condition may also offer help.

    Kimi87, do u know for sure the deadline for challenging the decision? thank u

    It's usually one calendar month @Mijuka

    However, if you miss the one-month deadline, you can still appeal for up to 13 months after the decision, but you’ll need to explain why your appeal is late.
