On DLA indefinitely - PIP or Not? was created by lynneb311
I was told by a carers association a while ago that if I reach age 65 my state retirement age and I am still receiving my indefinite award of DLA, that at that point I would no longer be required to reapply for PIP. Can anyone tell me if this is correct, or will I be asked to apply for PIP even if I have reached 65. I am currently 62.

Welcome to Benefits and Work

I'm afraid you have been misinformed :( You will be invited to claim PIP at some stage. You will find more information in this topic, which can be found in the 'spotlights' section at the top of this forum www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/forum?view=topic&catid=10&id=105719

If you have further questions about this process, please reply to this message and we will do our best to help. It makes our lives very much easier if everything relating to the same subject is kept in one place. You will find it easily in future if you bookmark/favourite it on your web browser now. Thank you in advance for your cooperation in this matter :)
