PIP with IR ESA was created by redgt9
Hi, I'm sure this has been answered someone before I have been told many times to apply for PIP but I never bothered until today. I filled in the PIP application today and sent it of, I am already on IR ESA. Because I am IR ESA will the PIP payment be stopped by the ESA payment, I know PIP is not means tested but IR ESA is. Mind you I might not get PIP but I have applied.
Thank you for any information you can tell me.

Hi red,

As you say, the ESA will not affect PIP payment. Nor will PIP have a deleterious effect on your ESA. In fact, if you get PIP you could well be entitled to an added ESA 'premium'.
