People on PIP moving to new disability benefits system may need to report change to DWP

Following the launch of Adult Disability Payment in Dundee, Perth and Kinross and the Western Isles in March, the next pilot areas to open for applications from new claimants will be in Angus, North Lanarkshire and South Lanarkshire on June 20.

This will be followed by Fife, Aberdeen City, Aberdeenshire, Moray, North Ayrshire, East Ayrshire and South Ayrshire, on July 25. If you live anywhere else in Scotland, you can make a new claim from August 29.

The new disability payment will replace Personal Independence Payment (PIP) this year for all new applicants living in Scotland and more than 305,000 existing claimants.
