Hi i received pip just before pension age and am now 68. I have gotton worse since being awarded it and have just been diagnosed with fibromyalgia. From my understanding once you reach pension age your claim cannot be increased it that right? Also do i have to inform them of this diagnoses please?
Hi @Gillian_22051234, I would say yes tell them of your health changes. As for the increase of money it is best to speak to the carers helpline for further information and advice but also citizens advice as they might have a better understanding of the dwp system as it changes every time.
