    My PIP was up for review last year in June 2023. I had a few texts saying they are still looking at it, but yesterday (18th March 2024) had a text saying my review was complete and to expect the decision letter within 2 weeks. So took a total of 9 months for those wondering how long it takes.

    I Phoned the PIP number this morning and once answering security the automated payment line told me what my next payment will be. Looks like I am awarded the same as last time, which I am still greatful for so won't challenge it. Just going to wait for the decision letter now to fully see what I have been awarded.
    I have Autism, ADHD, Schizophrenia, Gilberts Syndrome and Crohn's Disease and have knowledge in these areas.
