I receive PIP personal independence payment. I have just received compensation as result of my dad dying from an industrial disease. Mesothelioma (he worked with asbestos) Will this effect my PIP payment? 

Thanks

    PIP is not means tested so it won't affect it.
    However it may affect other benefits you receive if they are means tested.
