PIP renewal - when?

Does anyone know at what point people are contacted to go through the process of trying to renew their Personal Independence Payment?  Is it some months or weeks  before it runs out? And what do they do now - do they do in person interviews - or over the phone? Do they still visit people at home, or do you have to go somewhere for an appointment? If anyone has any helpful info about this I’d really appreciate you sharing it - because it’s been ages since my son last went through this (and we all found it incredibly stressful obviously). We’d like to know what to expect if possible. Thanks :)

  • Kate Kestrel I went through this recently and was contacted last year in September 2024 for renewal after being awarded it again in 2019. I was notified that I have been given the same award again to 2029. I didn't go through any interviews or phone calls and submitted just paperwork and medical latters and had a positive outcome. I used the links this post to complete my form and had a good result. They can do home visits, but they are not easy to get as I been that very frail eldery people in poor condition have to attend medical centres still in private transport. Good luck.
