Hi my friends 16 year old has Autism and doesn't leave the house, most of his medical history was held by the autism consultant who provided the education statement and although he rarely sees the GP the GP has provided a letter saying he won't leave the house. I'm about to help her fill in the pip form which is so different to the dla form as the pip form isn't as straightforward in explaining problems with the many conditions he has on the autism spectrum. Does anyone have any tips regarding moving from dla to pip with autism?
I've moved your post to its own topic, we ask members not to post their questions in other member's topics as it can lead to the wrong advice being given or taken.
PIP isn't about the condition but the limitations that result from it and how they prevent the claimant from completing a range of day to day activities. See our PIP Claim guide for more details.
