When you put in a claim for PIP, a health professional will assess your ability to carry out a range of daily activities that are essential for getting by in everyday life. This health


professional will write a report for the Department of Work and Pensions, and they will make a decision on whether you are entitled to PIP, how much, and for how long. If your claim is


successful you will receive PIP payments every four weeks, and it is paid directly into your bank, building society or credit union account. How much PIP you get is subject to a review, and


your PIP payments will be regularly reviewed in the future. Currently, if you claim the standard rate you will get £59.70 a week, and if you claim the enhanced rate you will get £89.15.
