Hi Archie

You have to have a condition for 3 months, so having an accident in May would fail the first test, the condition has to be ongoing for 9 months, would your accident have healed within the next 9 months.

If the answer is yes the outcome of your accident will be ongoing then you may want to apply for a change of circumstances, but you need to be certain that reporting a change of circumstances will increase your prospect in being awarded PIP.
