I have a PIP assessment soon and I work full time (just about) do you think it will be held against me that I work?
Thank you
Hi J,
PIP and indeed DLA are "in-work benefits" so you can receive full PIP awards and be in full time employment.
The only way that working could go against you receiving PIP awards would be if any of the duties/actions involved in your work were in direct contradictions to your stated limitations that may give you the necessary points for said PIP awards.
I would expect the PIP Assessor to question you regarding any such potentially contradictory actions/duties involved in your work, or indeed travelling to and from work.
You can read what to expect at your PIP Assessment from page 64 onwards of our :
PIP Claims Guide. (2nd Link on page) Good luck, and please keep us updated.
