Just wanted to add that my award even though I was initially advised it was ongoing runs until 2026 so a 10 year award.

Hi
Just have a quick question
Just going through my award notice and it states my DLA will end on 12/7 and PIP start on 13/7 and I will receive payment every 4 weeks on a Monday.
My first payment will be due on 8/8 and be £305.69 now this is in respect of the daily living allowance of £82.30 per week. When PIP starts on 13/7 it will be 4 weeks for when my first payment is due on 8/8 and now 4 X £82.30 equals £329.29 but I'm being paid £305.69 - sorry if I've understood the maths wrong ?

If your PIP starts on 13 July and the first pay day is 8 August then this is 26 days not 28!
4 x £82.30 = £329.20 / 28 = £11.76 x 26 = £305.69 (allowing for rounding errors)

I too was on DLA and asked to move to PIP.
I am paralyzed from the waist to T10 level since 1978, but I just cannot figure out the best way to fill out the form in the cooking section. Do you have any recommendations?
Appreciate your input

You have replied to a post from over a year ago so I doubt you are going to get a reply.
Have you looked at our PIP Claim guide
www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/help-for-claimants/pip
What problems do you have with preparing and cooking food?
