Hi L,

As : Motability are an independent charitable organisation, applying for a lease car under their scheme should not instigate Mum's transfer from DLA to PIP.

However, she should be aware that if she was under 65 years old on 08/04/13, that her transfer to PIP can happen at any time over the next 2-3 years.

See : This Post in our Spotlight Area at the top of The Forum.

If she has a Motability car at the time of her transfer to PIP, and fails to obtain an Enhanced Mobility PIP Award, she will have to : Return the lease car to Motability.
