    no heard nothing more other than they will make decision on or before the 8th june which has now past so upset
    I see you only had your assessment about 3 weeks ago. Timescales are up to about 12 weeks after the report was returned. Therefore, a timescale of up to 8th June would be rather quick.

    Unfortunately working all your life doesn’t automatically entitle you to PIP.

    You can now request the Mandatory Reconsideration. (MR) You should put this in writing stating where and why you think you should have scored those points. 

    The most likely outcome of the MR will be the decision doesn’t change. You can proceed to Tribunal after that.

    You can request the MR if you disagree and you're sure you can score enough of points needed for an award. It really does help to have some understanding of the descriptors and what they mean.
