DWP to change PIP review rules to reduce stress on claimants

5 days ago · Originally published 8 May 2026 7/10 Original headline: DWP update on PIP rule change to ‘remove unnecessary pressure’
The Department for Work and Pensions is changing the rules for Personal Independence Payment reviews to reduce unnecessary stress on claimants.

This change aims to free up resources while supporting claimants.
