People already receiving PIP do not need to apply for Adult Disability Payment as the migration will be automatic
Adult Disability Payment is gradually replacing Personal Independence Payment for existing claimants living in Scotland. The devolved benefit provides the same financial support as the Department for Work and Pensions for people between 16 and State Pension age, who are disabled, have a long-term health condition or have a terminal illness.
Guidance on MyGov.Scot states that the date you’re given for the transfer will “usually depend on your review date” for PIP. However, it adds that your case may be fast-tracked if there’s been a change in your condition since August 29, 2022, or you’re due a PIP review or your PIP award is about to end.
In a post on Twitter from the official Social Security Scotland account, it said: “If you are still getting PIP or DLA it is essential that you continue to keep @DWP up to date with any changes to your circumstances.
Which means that if you have recently moved home or switched to a new health practice, do not put off reporting the change any longer.
