People on PIP may also have to pay a penalty if they give the DWP wrong information
Recent figures from the Department for Work and Pensions show that at the end of July, 2022 there were more than three million people across the UK claiming support through Personal Independence Payments . This was an increase of more than 52,000 since April and also indicated that just over one in three claimants is receiving the highest level of award.
Adult Disability Payment has now replaced new claims for PIP in Scotland, with a managed migration process underway from DWP to Social Security Scotland, this process is expected to be completed by 2025. However, many claimants may be unaware of a list of changes in circumstances that must be reported to DWP or risk serious repercussions.
While that might sound a bit extreme, often people with 'light touch' reviews of 10 years, may forget to contact DWP with relevant changes in their circumstances.
