    Hi Hicky,

    it is normal practise for the DWP to contact you a year before your award date, it's to ensure that the award does not run out before the new decision is made.

    Hi sorry to be the bearer of bad new but if they reassess you and decide your not entitled your payments will stop, it want make any difference that your claim says 2 or 3 years its till whenever they say.

    Don't worry though, if your care/mobility is still the same and you have up to date proof then your claim will be honored.

    It will all depend on your ongoing circumstances

      Well there's a lot of people out there that have proof that their condition is the same or has indeed got worse and they've had thier claim stopped when it's review time. In my honest oppinion no one is ever safe when it comes to PIP. Even those over the age of 65 will still continue to be reviewed.

      All I can go on is physical statistics which this site does not always portray, the majority of people who apply for pip and can show without a shadow of doubt that there ongoing condition is making it impossible for them to have a good quality of life and that there mobility is genuinely hampered by there condition will continue to receive PIP as I cannot and do not physically meet every PIP claiment I cannot say whether there entitled or not, all I know is as you yourself have stated many times, if you appeal and can show the appeal board that your life is made unlivable without help etc your appeal will be upheld.

      You say that everyone over 65 will still be reviewed, did I say anything to the contrary regarding that
