What is Personal Independence Payment (PIP)?
Personal Independence Payment (PIP) is a benefit you can get to help you pay for extra costs caused by:
- Having a long-term physical or mental health condition or disability.
- Struggling with everyday tasks or getting around because of your condition or disability.
PIP has two parts:
Daily living component: This helps if you need support with daily tasks due to your health condition.
Mobility component: This component support to individuals who need help moving from one place to another because of their condition or disability.
PIP is replacing Disability Living Allowance (DLA) for people aged 16 to State Pension age. Unlike some benefits, PIP eligibility isn’t based on income, savings, or if you’re currently working.
