If you have recently transferred

If you used to get Disability Living Allowance from the Department for Work and Pensions on behalf of a child or young person, and are now going to get Child Disability Payment from Social Security Scotland instead, they'll send you a letter to explain what happens next. You do not need to do anything until you receive these letters.
