    As you are only 31 you wouldn't be able to claim anyway.
    Its not that we have more patience as we grow older, its just that we're too tired to care about all the pointless drama ;)

    my advice to everyone wanting to know about PIP as it stand now is to research the DWP links above and follow some links insude them aswell. familiarise yourself with the terminoligy, and go from there, dont take one persons word for it thats what going to happen or is LIKELY to happen, as this is one persons interpretation of the roll out and going on.

    Ive read many papers and many links on many sites about PIP, i cant even get to grips with what is 100% going to happen and what the criteria will be, many things are out in the open, and i havent seen the results from the organisations that are working with the goverment (consultations) to make PIP more fairer to those who need care and mobility.

    IF anyone has those results at hand please provide me the link as the consultation period was over in march this year.
