Many people may be unaware that Personal Independent Payment (PIP) claims are time sensitive.
The benefit is for people aged over 16 and under State Pension age with a disability, long-term illness or mental health condition who need help completing daily tasks inside their home or getting around. There is thought to be almost three million people in the UK claiming the benefit.
They receive financial support of between £24.45 and £156.90 each week. PIP is paid every four weeks so this amounts to between £97.80 and £627.60 every payment period, reported the Daily Record.
