    PIP has nothing to do with your UC claim so putting a message on your journal about your PIP assessment report isn't going to help.

    If you want a copy of the report then you will need to ring PIP to ask. Please be aware though that it's not the decision letter, it's a recommendation only. Very often requesting the report at the stage does tend to cause a lot more anxiety.

    You will need to wait until Monday when they open again at 9am.

    Personal Independence Payment (PIP)

    Are you sure this was a PIP assessment and not a work capability assessment? 

    PIP has nothing to do with UC because they are completely different benefits.

    Oh god I think your right !! How embarrassing, it just shows you what stress can do.  I think it's to see if I qualify for LCW or something like that . Thanks for the information and keep up the great work X.

    No problem, it’s easily done. Once a decision is made the letter will be uploaded onto your journal. This can take up to about 12 weeks after the report was returned.
