Pip 10 year review

Dandytf

Just read that 10 year reviews were being considered for Disabled PIP claimants.
Wondering if those eligible were going to be advised their under 10 year review.
Does this 10 year category have any effect on those due to auto move from PIP to UC -possibly 2023.

Thanks

Moving from PIP to UC? Nope, that's not going to happen because they are completely different benefits, with totally different criteria and PIP is not part of UC.

Thanks for your reminder.
What I could have asked is as an example.
Does 10 year PIP review have any effect on WTC'S due to mover over to UC from 2023 approx.
Think that's the second time I have been corrected 😷

Dandy..

I only found out I'm in the 10 yr review group when a letter arrived from PIP stating I had been reassessed and things would stay the same for an 'indefinite period'.

I then googled and looked on here to see what 'indefinite period' meant in PIP terms and found out about 10 yr review for some people.

So I wasn't told i'd be in that group until the results came in.

It was a bit weird as I didn't get the usual PIP renewal form either they just went off the form from before and did it all without me knowing 'I was being done'. I think they contacted my GP as he mentioned something but wasn't clear if PIP or ESA (they happen close together for me)

But very happy not to have any of the admin, worry, and energy output sorting it all.

So I don't know if you do find out in advance.. just at renewal time?

Thanks mser's

I thought maybe with M.S. I could maybe be considered for 10 years review on the basis my condition 'doesn't improve'
Though that's only one small part of the article I read recently.
My recent review letter mid 2019 did state after my PIP had been reviewed then I'll continue until 2023.
No changes were made which I am happy about.

@Cyclamen- nice to see you received 10 year info.

i received enhanced PIP award for two years with a review after 1 year as my condition (MS) may change.... well yes that's right, it might get worse I'm waiting for the review anytime now.
This was after i lost a tribunal hearing the year before.

Id love a ten year review.

I don't have M.S but have a condition with some symptom cross over. I use the MS society resources for my benefits.. it might be worth contacting them as they appear to be pretty blooming good.

I know there is a campaign running about the 'indefinite period' being awarded to M.S Patients.

I hope things get sorted soon as the stress of the PIP and ESA process is awful on all of us.

MS society is excellent as is MS Trust.
Though I have only ever had benefits info from Atos or local job centre finance dept advice.
Thanks

I have no idea what you mean by this. There's no "secret" to the switchover to UC. You were also advised on the UC transition on another thread some time ago. Here https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.php?t=6050001
