My review date is not for another 12 months. I am considering asking for an early review for two reasons;
1) My circumstances have worsened since my initial assessment and I feel that I might now be entitled to claim more, and
2) I am concerned about any potential delay in the review taking place if I leave things to fall on the current planned review date, particularly if in the event of a delay my PIP payment were to be suspended pending the review
I am hoping for some advice from those that may have been in a similar position, or anyone with experience that might be able to guide me.
If you want to report that your condition has deteriorated, you can put in for a 'change of circumstances'. That will automatically trigger a review. Before you do so, look at the PIP criteria and see where you think you should now get more points. I only say this because a deterioration in a claimant's medical condition doesn't necessarily lead to an improved PIP award.
