PIP change of circumstances- CONFUSED! was created by Sazsclobber
Hi all, this is my second topic with the forum.
My husband was awarded on going till 2026 on his PiP claim-both enhanced. But due to having problems with harassment and the area we live in is dusty and it effects our asthma- we are after moving house- but the house we move into wont be adapted.
Just wondering if this would effect my husbands PIP claim??
Again thxs for all your help with my husbands pip claim.
Thanks
Sarah

Hi Sarah,
The only way I can see this affecting the PIP claim is if, as a result, your husband is no longer using aids for which he scored points in his PIP assessment.
If you do not know where he scored points, you can ask DWP for a copy of the assessor's report. Or a Subject Access Request will result in you getting a copy of all paperwork relating to this claim.
Requesting a Subject Access Request (SAR) :
SAR Form Download
From this page :
DWP Data Protection Policy
Or you can make the request in the form of a letter, as long as you make it clear that you are making a formal SAR under The Data Protection Act 1998.
Address the envelope : FAO The Data Controller, at the Benefits Office dealing with your PIP.
Write DPA 1998 SAR in front, top, left corner of envelope.
Once received, they have 40 calendar days to comply.
Sending Documents to the DWP.
