Members of an online forum report receiving between £5,000 to £12,000 in backdated PIP payments.
Members of a popular online benefits forum have received backdated Personal Independence Payments of between £5,000 and nearly £12,000 following a recent rule change by the Department for Work and Pensions . Some 326,000 PIP cases are due for review after a change to the definition of ‘social support’, which relates to one of the Daily Living questions on the PIP 2 evidence form.
The website also shared how one member’s partner received confirmation they would be due nearly £12,000 in backdated PIP. They said: “My partner received a missed call Tuesday, text received stating they will call back Wednesday morning. It sent him in a whirlwind thinking they were going to stop his entitlement.
In July 2019, the Supreme Court handed down a judgment following an Upper Tribunal decision which changed the way the DWP considers the definition of ‘social support’ for Daily Living activity number nine. The ‘MM’ judgment concerns the definition of ‘social support’ when engaging with other people face to face and when ‘prompting’ should be considered ‘social support’ in the PIP assessment, and how far in advance social support can be provided.
Who may be affected by the assessment rule change? The MM judgment can only affect a claimant’s assessment for the Daily Living part of the PIP assessment. The DWP is reviewing cases where additional points for Activity 9 may make a material difference to the amount of PIP claimants’ are entitled to.
