Hi,

My daughter was admitted to hospital seven days ago and not sure how long she will be in there. Do we need to notify PIP about her stay straight away? The award is for daily living only. Already started another topic on a Mandatory Reconsideration Request but thought it best to post a separate topic.

Hi Swanny

You don't have to tell them immediately, but you are supposed to inform them. You can read the guidance here.
