Only those in an active PIP area and further, only those who's renewal occurs more than 20 weeks after that area goes "live" will be invited to claim PIP. The following has the currently active postcodes.
As you have been sent DLA forms then you should complete and return them by the required date, please be aware that you should treat this as a new claim and complete the form in detail and supply any evidence you have even if you have done this previously. Our latest DLA Claim guides are available on the following link.
