I AM A PARENT TO A 40 YEAR OLD SON WHO IS STILL AWAITING AN INVITE TO CLAIM PIP, HE LIVES WITH ME ANDHIS DAD IN PISTCODE AREA SO532NL, IS THIS AREA DELAYED IN BEING INVITED, ALSO MY SONS CIRCUMSTANCES HAVE CHANGED A BIT SO SHOULD I RINGUP AND GET THE FORMS SENT TO HIM OR JUST SIT AND WAIT TO BE INVITED TO CLAIM. I THOUGHT THAT ALL THOS ON DLA SHOULD HAVE BEEN ASSESSED BY NOW. DONT KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE.

Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explains where everything is
Welcome to Benefits and Work
In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ
My full name is showing, how can I stop it?
Please don't post in capitals, it is very difficult to read.
DLA claimants are being selected at random for transfer to PIP, all postcodes are active and there are no postcode specific delays. As a whole, the project is already running at least a year late and it looks like there could be further delays.
I can't advise whether you should apply now or not, the criteria for PIP is very different from DLA, the best that I can suggest is that you have a look at our PIP Claim guides on the following link
www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/help-for-claimants/pip
if you reasonably think that he would receive a higher award then think about notifying the DWP that his conditions are worse.
