All existing PIP claimants living in Scotland will move to the devolved payment this Spring.
The transition from Personal Independence Payment (PIP) to Adult Disability Payment (ADP) in Scotland involves several key points. Some individuals on ADP may need to reapply for PIP if they move out of Scotland. The contact number provided is 800 182 2222. As of October, 374,655 people were on ADP, with an additional 80,272 expected to transfer by Spring, totaling 454,927, and aiming to reach 500,000 by 2025. The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) advises that moving to England or Wales requires a new PIP claim, as ADP will cease after 13 weeks. A redetermination process allows ADP recipients to review their award if they believe it's incorrect. Existing PIP claimants in Scotland are transitioning to ADP, with notifications and transfer processes involving letters from both DWP and Social Security Scotland.
