    Then deduct the weekly payments – £69.50 x 52 (weeks in year) x 3 (years of contract) equals £10,842 (plus any annual increments). PIP rate for 2020 is £62.25 x 52 weeks = £3,237 x 3 years = £9,711 (obviously there will be 2 small yearly rises in allowance rate but not a lot really.

    I just used the WPMS weekly amount in the example as it is the one I am most familiar with being a war pensioner.

    As you have demonstrated, the exact same principle applies using the DLA/PIP/AFIP weekly amount – just the AP will be larger as the weekly allowance is lower.
