    Hello @tara2019

    I hope you are keeping well?

    I'm so sorry no one has answered your query. Did you end up getting an extension letter?

    I don't think they're automatically sending out extension letters now, just the texts. 

    If you can contact PIP, you may be able to get a letter sent out manually.  The extensions should now be for 12 months, instead of the 3 months that they were previously.
