PIP Award was created by Bill24chev
We have not officially received Wife's PIp award yet But received a Housing Benefit and Council Tax Support reassessment that showed a reduction in HB and an overpayment(for the Year) of Council Tax Support.
Apparently DWP have notified LA that wife will be getting Standard Care and Eenhanced Mobility from 11Jan 2017. Was getting High Care and Mobility DLA so no enhanced disability payment.
No brown envelope from DWP yet.
Will request a copy of the Assessment but will probably not request MR or Appeal incase Mobility is looked at again.

Changing from DLA to PIP
Do DWP send out the award letter when decision made or nearer time when the decision is valid from?, ie. start date for PIP after a final months DLA paid from decision date
In wife's case the decision was made on the 11th December because notice of HB and CTS change from 11th January 2017. But still no DWP PIP decision letter.

The Decision Letter has to be sent when the Decision is made, but it can easily take 10 days for it to be printed and posted, your LA will have been notified electronically.

The PIP Award letter has finally arrived.
11 points for Daily Living and as expected 12 pointys for Mobility.
I know we should have had at least 4 more points for Daily Living but we have decided not to requst MR or appeal because the review date is February 2026,
Information available on Benefitsand Work have played a Major role in success with both PIP and ESA. Thank You
Also i said imn my earlier post that we had lost the Enhanced Disability premium for Housing Benefit. LA are to reinstate this because they were unaware that Wife in ESA Suipport Group which also qualifies for Enhanced Disability Premium
Just waiting now for my DLA to PIP letter.
