If you scan the barcode on the PIP Form they send you, all you get is your National insurance number, but it doesn’t take to an actually website, the browser states “No results”

If you scan the bar code with a barcode reader on your phone, is it traceable, are DWP checking on you?

HI Steve,

The barcode is unique to you so that the DWP can tie the form to the claimant easily. This is why we say that members must return the form they were sent rather than trying to obtain a copy from anywhere.
