Dla renewal for child which runs out 1 day before

I have a child with Down syndrome whose dla runs out in aug the day before she's 16. I requested dla form and it was sent for a child under 16. The dwp have now sent me another renewal for child over 16?
Which form do I fill in and are the rules easier to get higher rate mobility which she gets now for behaviour if she's marked as a child under 16?

Read my post and hope it didn't come out wrong!
Which form should I fill in its confusing because she is only 15, I don't know what to do ?

As I'm sure you're aware, DLA will over the next few years be replaced by Personal Independence Payment for claimants of DLA aged between 16 and 64.

As your daughter is only 15 years of age at present, I'm not sure if she will remain on DLA for all future claims. Currently the DWP site on PIP states "There are no plans to replace DLA for children under 16 and for people who were aged 65 and over on 8 April 2013 who are already receiving DLA."

I've never been asked if this applies to those currently on DLA and under 16 years of age on 8 April. Will they be classed as adults when they reach 16 years of age, and thus have to claim PIP rather than DLA.

Perhaps other moderators may be able to offer an opinion on whether or not those under 16 years of age will remain on DLA as long as they satisfy the requirements or at some time in the future will be required to claim PIP.

My. Understanding is that pip won't happen for us until after 2015.

I went to see the gp, I had spoken to him earlier in the week , phone appn about my daughters anti biopics. I asked at the time if he'd be prepared to do a supportive letter for her dla renewal. He said to bring her in today as he couldn't do it without seeing her, which was fair enough. Today he checked her over but said he couldn't do supportive letter, it was better if I filled the form in and if dwp had any questions he'd anwser the form then!
Tried to explain I was expected to prove everything I was writing to describe her difficulties, but he still didn't feel a letter at this stage was necessary.
I had brought with me a tick checklist as suggested which I'd filled in and i went through with him. He did ask to keep it for his record.

Been dreading seeing him all week as I hate the form, not the doctor.

Bit disillusioned now and unsure what to do next
