PIP when moving address was created by Fiona
Hello

I have a question on behalf of my brother, this time around PIP. I thought I'd found the answer elsewhere on the Internet but can't now find it.

He is in receipt of PIP, both at lower rate, was given a 3 year award last year and so is not due to be reassessed until summer 2027. He will be moving to a different area of the country over the next few months and is certain that he will have to reapply as it is a change of circumstances. I don't think he will as it is not his condition(s) that have changed but his address (and therefore his GP and wider medical team) and that he will only need to inform the PIP department of his move so their records are up to date.

I'd be very grateful if you could clarify which it is.

Many thanks for your help.

Hi Fiona

You only need to inform DWP of a change of address, it makes no difference as to what area they are moving to.
