People of working age may be eligible for financial support
Millions of people in the UK suffer from mental health related conditions. One in four will experience a problem of some kind and 1 in 6 will report a common mental health problem like depression or anxiety in a typical week, according to mental health charity, Mind,
The guidance highlights that factors such as side effects, problems complying with a medication regime or the medication not being effective for that individual may all result in someone with a severe condition not receiving medication. It goes on to say that assessors should take into account the use of treatments such as psychological therapies instead of medication.
You may be eligible for PIP if you have increased costs to support your daily living needs because of a mental health condition. A successful claim for PIP is worth between £24.45 and £156.90 each week in additional financial support. As the benefit is paid every four weeks, this amounts to between £97.80 and £627.60 every payment period.
The DWP will evaluate the eligibility of your claim over a period of 12 months, looking back for three months and forward for nine months - they must consider if your illness changes over time. PIP test scoring criteria The PIP scoring criteria awards points for a statement which applies to you for each activity. The DWP will decide which statement best fits your situation most of the time. You will get a set amount of points ranging from 0 -12 points for each activity. The total number of points you get for each group of activities will decide whether you are entitled to PIP, and how much money you will receive.
