No Yearly Update from PIP in March this year?? was created by ostia
Hello
I normally receive an update in March about my PIP award which is for lower rate daily living allowance only.
I have not been asked to resubmit a claim for quite a few years now, since having an at home WCA.
I did not receive an update letter this year and I was just going to accept it and not rock the boat by contacting PIP but now I need proof of my PIP Award for a legal matter.
I have post viral CFS/ME plus other neurological problems so I am wondering if they are letting it run on withour review since there has been no change for over 10 years. I am under pension age, by the way.
If I ask for a copy of this year's update...or an explanation as to why one has not been sent....will this trigger a query/review of my claim?? I have just gone through a transfer from ESA to UC and can't really cope with too much contact with the DWP at the moment! Even though the transfer was successful and the staff were remarkably understanding about my difficulties and stress levels.
Any feedback would be appreciated. Many thanks.

Hi Osita
The letters were late coming out this year, but as you typically received yours in March, there is nothing wrong in ringing the DWP and asking if your letter has been sent out. It won't trigger a review of your claim. The call handler will be able to see if it has been sent or not.
