PIP was created by Mootyb
I was awarded pip last year until
8 April 2017. Last week I received an annual advice letter stating I would continue to receive PIP UNTIL 8 April 2017 and to keep the letter as proof. Then today I received another letter stating they're looking at my PIP again and I have to complete a 40 page form. Do you think they've made a mistake asking me to complete this form. I certainly hope so!! I've just completed my ESA form and to be honest I'm a wreck! These forms make me so stressed. I got CAB to help me complete the ESA form. I can't understand why they're asking me to complete this pip for when I was awarded pip until April 2017. Any advice would be appreciated. I've got so many hospital appointments at the moment and have day surgery on Monday, I can well do with out this.

Welcome to the forum.
In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ
My full name is showing, how can I stop it?
I'm afraid nearly all PIP awards are being assessed a year in advance of the award ending, there is nothing that you can do about it except complete and return the form.
This is a full reassessment of your claim so you need to complete the PIP2 in detail and supply evidence to support of your claim, even if you have already included before.
I would recommend that you refer to our PIP Claim guide for information on the criteria against which you will be assessed.
