Advice Please : :)
Missus has HR Mobility & LR Care award on indefinite , her care side is now more & more a problem for both of us ( I`m going blind ) and would like advice on informing the W&P about this change in her needs ?
Would she be migrated to PIP ? we are in YO16 area .
At what level would her care needs be treated as changed ?
Thanks in advance :)

    According to this your wife's DLA would change to PIP if her needs have changed. Have you looked at the PIP criteria which is here

    I suggest you ring your DLA office and ask them. I expected having to change over to PIP when my condition changed for the worse but I am still on DLA, now with HRM.
