PIP Guide
Understanding the changes to your Disability Living Allowance (DLA)
PIP stands for ‘Personal Independence Payment’.
PIP will be replacing DLA, for people, aged 16-64, who need help with their care and/ or mobility. However, you must claim for PIP and if you choose not to, your DLA will stop. No one will be automatically transferred from DLA to PIP.
