Personal Independence Payment (PIP)
Unless you have a terminal illness you’ll usually have to have an assessment to complete your Personal Independence Payment (PIP) application. It’s an opportunity for you to talk about how your condition affects you – it’s not a diagnosis of your condition or a medical examination.
Your health assessment provider is Maximus. They will send you your appointment letter. If you need to discuss your appointment time, contact Maximus.
A health professional will carry out your assessment – they’ll write a report and send it to the DWP.
It’s important you prepare – the DWP will use evidence from the assessment to decide if you can get PIP.
By clicking on the button on the right you will be able to view and download our PIP Assessment Helpsheet. Print it out and take it with you. It includes tips on what to take to your assessment and dos and don’ts during the assessment.
