Hi guys thought they were not starting the renewal or cross over from DLA TO PIP for old claimants until oct 2013, don't know if my current claim ends before feb 2014, maybe that's why.
Had a quick look through the application form and it looks very different to the old DLA form and many questions very hard to answer due to how they are worded. Do you answer questions like when your at your worst, any info would be great thank you.

Hi Motivator,
As you say, we would not expect DLA claimants to be invited to claim for PIP until October of this year. as forms are sent out aprox 4 months before the DLA expiry date, this would be for claimants who have DLA awards due to finish in Feb 2014. Unlike ESA, DLA is a fixed term award, please can you tell us when yours is due to end?
As for ESA and DLA, you should report your situation as it is for the majority of the time and also give an idea of how it is at its worst and how often you would expect that to occur.
