Pensioner receiving DLA ( change of circumstances ) was created by Jan1955
A pensioner on High Rate Mobility DLA ( no care )
Circumstances have changed and due to medical conditions worsening he now needs care
Can we ask DLA to look at it ? or would it trigger a claim for PIP
kind regards

Hi Jan1955
It would depend on the persons DOB, if born before 08/04/48 then will stay on DLA, if not then then may be asked to apply for PIP.
If asked to apply for PIP, remember that the descriptors are different between DLA and PIP, so do read our guide which will help you.
