PIP and state pension was created by jeff
Hello
Can you help me i am so confused,
I was on DLA up to 2018 and was then awarded PIP for 4 years to april 2022 (standard living and enhanced mobility) the award said i would be contacted after april 2021 for a award review,
I will be 66 in march 2021 and receive my state pension before any review is scheduled, after reading a freedom of information request i am unsure as to what to expect will it be an award review letter (AR1) or will it be the new letter (PIP4500) which says

"We have changed how long your Personal Independence Payment
(PIP) is awarded for. This means your PIP award is now for an
ongoing period and has no end date.
We will review how much help you need 10 years after your PIP was
last awarded. We will write to you about this on or around <Dec Rec
Review Date>.
Why have we done this?
We have changed how often we review PIP awards for claimants who
have reached State Pension age"

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Jeff

I would expect you to receive the letter - as this would fall in line with the press release on the government's website.
