    When a decision is made it takes up to 24 hours for it to show on the computer. They will be able to see the decision is made but not what it it. Sometimes they send texts (not always) if it's a new claim, which are usually sent the following morning after the decision is made.
    Not receiving a text yet doesn't mean you haven't been awarded.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Hi @titchyhayz and a warm welcome to our online community, how are you today?

    I understand it can be difficult being left 'in limbo' not knowing the outcome of your PIP claim, but unfortunately I think it's a case of waiting a little while longer until that decision letter is received to know for sure. We'll have everything crossed for you, and if it's the case that the decision goes against what you believe you should have been awarded, we'd be happy to talk you through the next steps.

    Please keep us posted with how you get on. And good luck!

    PS - I've moved your thread to our PIP, DLA and AA category and amended the title to help make it more visible to others.

    No, not always. Are you also aware that it's not awarded based on any diagnosis.

    It's based on how well you can manage each of the PIP descriptors a majority of the time @titchyhayz, does that make sense?

    It might be helpful to make a note of any examples of time's you've struggled with anything in the descriptors, or what aids you use to help you.
