DLA or PIP

I received my DLA renewal form but Im in a postcode which is now sopposed to be transferring to PIP.Do I fill out the DLA renewal form or wait for a PIP form? I find the whole process very stressful so I dont want to fill out the DLA form and find out I will have to do it all over again for PIP!

Hi NW,

Are you sure that you are in one of the areas for DLA to PIP transfer, as there were delays :

www.gov.uk/government/publications/pip-postcode-map-uk

My best advice would be that if you have been sent a DLA renewal form that you should fill it in and return within the time restraints given.

See : DLA Guides & DLA FAQ’s

If you fail to return the DLA renewal, and your fixed term award expires, you will be forced to make a fresh claim, and this would definitely be for PIP, which depending on your limitations can be much harder to get.

We have heard quite a lot of success stories recently with DLA renewals.
