PIP Extensions

From today's Rightsnet newsletter "DWP confirms it is increasing the automatic extension period for existing PIP awards awaiting review from three months to up to 12 months".

doesnt make sense today I received PIP review, asking for return by 28 september. My Pip isnt due to be reviewed till feb/March 2023?

feeling extremley anxious and confused please help!

Hi all,

I made a phone call on behalf of a neighbour last week.

Her award comes to an end in October, but the call hander said her award would continue until a decision had been made.

Given the fact that she's heard nothing since the DWP received her renewal form in December last year, it seems the DWP must be at different stages in various areas around the country.

Or are they just incompetent?

I wish I knew the answer.

Regards,

Phrank.

What area might you be in then Phrank?
