Very worried about PIP COA

I have severe mental health problems and recieve PIP.

I changed my address temporarily at the end of Feb, my tenancy didn't end until a few weeks later but I had to move back in with my family. I sent the DWP a letter but I was so anxious about other things I never followed up with a phone call to check they got it.From Thurs I have a permanent address(different from my previous permanent address) but I am worried that when I ring them they might not have recieved the previous letter and I will get in trouble. I have been under a lot of stress the past few weeks. I have sent them another letter explaining things but forgot to get proof of posting for it or the previous letter.

    There won't be a problem but you will need to ring them and tell them your new address. People do move all the time, it will be fine. Ringing them is the best, that's what i've always done.
  • Thanks poppy. I will do so on Monday.
