Full breakdown of the questions on the shorter six-page PIP award review document from DWP.
The Department for Work and Pensions recently announced that “in most cases” people coming to the end of their 10-year award for Personal Independence Payment this year will not be required to attend an assessment. This follows on from the introduction of a new, shorter PIP review form that is now being sent out to those on a ‘light-touch’ award.
The DWP recently said tat the first light-touch reviews started in August and involve a short form to check whether anything has changed. DWP said this is so that "we can adjust the award if needed and confirm we hold up to date information" and added "in most cases an assessment with a health professional will not be required.”Top Money Stories Today Questions on the review form Here are all 16 questions on the PIP AR2 form.
