Most Disability Living Allowance reassessments have been paused since 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The Department for Work and Pensions has shared a new update for people in receipt of Disability Living Allowance waiting to transfer to Personal Independence Payment . A temporary “pause” for most DLA to PIP reassessment activity was introduced by DWP in March 2020 as part of its response to the coronavirus pandemic.
Pensions Minister, Tom Pursglove MP, shared the update after Conservative MP asked DWP what progress has been made on moving adult claimants on DLA to PIP - a staggered UK-wide process which began in 2013. “We are currently experiencing unprecedented levels of new claims to PIP. Reducing customer journey times for PIP claimants is a priority for the department and we are working constantly to make improvements to our service.
