More existing claimants will start to receive letters notifying them of the move to the devolved benefit
More people in receipt of Personal Independence Payment from the Department for Work and Pensions will now start moving to the new Adult Disability Payment, according to Social Security Scotland. The devolved benefit provides the same financial support as the DWP for people living in Scotland between 16 and State Pension age, who are disabled, have a long-term health condition or have a terminal illness.
Once the transfer is complete, they will receive a letter from Social Security Scotland to let them know they will be receiving Adult Disability Payment from then on. Since Adult Disability Payment launched last year, only people receiving PIP have had their awards transferred to the devolved payment if they reported a change in circumstances, or their PIP award was due to be reviewed or come to an end.
