Hi Mark65

Congratulations on your award following your change of circumstances request and being placed in the support group.

Did you put in for a change of circumstances to your PIP at the same time? Even if you did so, the PIP team will decide what type of assessment they will do and, subsequent to that, whether you receive an improved backdated award. If you didn't put in a letter to PIP telling them about a change of circumstances, then a normal review will take place, and any award won't be backdated.

Hi Mark65

Do not assume anything, they are different departments, one would hope that they do share data but to be on the safe side contact PIP by phone then send a letter about was was discussed/agreed by recorded delivery.
