Personal Independence Payment will start to replace DLA from 8.4.13 for people aged 16-64. It will have two components - Daily Living and Mobility. Each component will have 2 rates, standard and enhanced.
Current recipients of DLA will have to start again from scratch and apply for P.I.P.. Most people will have to attend a new medical examination.
Depending on when your current award for DLA is due to end, you may not be contacted until 2015 or later.
They very helpfully say that if you are currently awarded DLA and are subsequently qualify for P.I.P. you may receive the same money, or less money, or more money.
