When did the questions on the PIP application form change ?
Why was the changes made ?
The overall design of the form has changed including where you place your answer, it is no longer broken down into 3 sections it is just all in one.
It makes it a little confusing for people looking for help online in places like https://pipinfo.net
Question on new form
9 Talking, listening and understanding
10 Reading
11 Mixing with other people
It used to be
Question on old form
7 speaking to people hearing and understanding what they say and being understood

I am currently on UC,ESA LCWA, I have a very small work pension from a previous job from before I was to sick to work. It is just over £2000, If I was to take this pension early while still claiming UC how would it affect my payments ?
Would it be classed as savings or income ?
and would I loose my UC for the month I receive this pension payment ?
If I were to leave it and claim it at State pension age how would it affect my state pension ?
I was thinking of taking it early when my Motability lease is due to finish and use it as a deposit against buying a car instead of using Motability.
Thanks
