I have been awarded enhanced daily living and standard mobility, what else can I claim? Will I get any other support?

Hi LL,

Congratulations on your PIP award!

If you are unable to work because of sickness/disability, and your GP would be willing to give fitnotes to support this, then you might be entitled to ESA (if you are not already getting it).

ESA claims and appeals

You are entitled to half price vehicle tax on one car that you own. You should also be able to get a blue badge.

Other than that, I don't know if you would be entitled to anything else, this would depend on your specific circumstances. I suggest you put your details into one of the websites such as turn2us and see what comes up.

It's obviously too late now but you should never send original documents to the DWP unless specifically asked to, there is a good possibility that what you have send was destroyed once it was scanned by the DWP!

All you can do is ask the DWP if it is still available and if it can be returned.

There should have been an accompanying letter with the SDP form, you need to return it to the address on the letter.
