Hi, I am 70years old and have an indefinite award of DLA covering Higher Rate Mobility and Lower Rate Care. I suffer with Oestoarthritis and Fibromyalgia. Someone has told me I would have to reapply for DLA when I move to Belfast as it is not classed the same as England. Is this correct.

We know that their are problems moving from Northern Ireland to the UK mainland But I am not sure whether these exist in the other direction, your best bet is to contact the Social Security Agency who manage benefits in N. Ireland. See
Thank you Gordon, I willphone them as you have suggested and let you know what they say. I do know they have problems there with the Welfare Budget and it is going to benefits are due for severe cuts.
