transfer from DLA to PIP was created by Stephen Forster

Hi, if someone is currently on DLA and being reassessed for PIP, would they have to hand back their power chair which they got with the mobility award with DLA, until their reassessment for PIP has been finalised?

Hi SF,

As any DLA recipient who is invited to claim PIP would continue to receive their current existing rate of DLA until 4 weeks after the date of the PIP decision, the answer should be "no".

Just to add to Bro's advice.

In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ

My full name is showing, how can I stop it?

If your chair is leased from Motability and it is about to expire then you will need to contact them about the matter.
