Changes which do not require an unscheduled review

Some changes might have an impact on the individual’s life but do not constitute a change that could possibly affect entitlement. These changes do not require an unscheduled review. For example, a change in an individual’s contact 
details. 

Example: change which does not require an unscheduled review

Colin is entitled to the standard rate mobility component of ADP. He completes a Change of Circumstances form and sends it to Social Security Scotland to update his address after he moves from Edinburgh to Glasgow to attend college.

The case manager reviews the Change of Circumstances form. They determine that no unscheduled review is required, as the change of contact details would not affect Colin’s entitlement to ADP.

The case manager sends a letter to Colin to explain that Social Security Scotland has updated its record of his address. No further action is required from Colin and his entitlement hasn’t changed.
