I’m here to see what other people have said about pip telephone assessments, I had mine on the 15th February, and the same day I received a txt message saying they had received my report already, I then received a letter yesterday stating that they had all the information they needed to decide my pip claim, I’m worried, is this good news? Or should I of heard earlier.. the longer it’s taking the more I’m worrying my anxiety’s through the roof, I can’t sleep, I have this cloud over me constantly on edge like something bads going to happen 😔

    Hello @peaches86

    Welcome to the community! :) How are you today?

    Just to let you know, I popped your post into our PIP, DLA and AA section of the forum :) 

    Please don't worry or be on edge, which I know is easier said than done! Unfortunately we can't say whether that is good or bad news, you will have to wait until they have finished deciding. We have had users who have waited a long time and still are waiting. There is a little bit of a backlog still.

    The text messages and letter you received are all standard sent to everyone. A decision can take up to about 12 weeks after the report was returned to DWP.
