Hi I applied for pip for the first time on the 6th of march. I got a text from the DWP saying they have received my written assessment report, I have not had any assesments at all. I have applied due to severe anxiety, ADHD, and autism and how much these impact my daily life. 
Has anyone else had this and it's been a good outcome? 
Thank you

    You will have had a paper based assessment. It means there was enough of information to write the report without an assessment. 
    They are rare but possible. I would say it’s a good thing but you’ll need to wait for the decision. This can take up to 12 weeks after the report was returned.

    Thank you, wow 12 weeks! I applied back in March, text from ISA I think it was in April to say they were dealing with my claim, and then that text today. So what's a few more weeks hey!

    Hi looking for some advice. I took my pip claim to tribunal received a text on Monday this week to say the final decision had been made. Received a letter today (Thursday) which stated my appeal had been refused but then went on to say I had been awarded 8 points on the daily living . Therefore I qualify . I’m very confused as if appeal was refused how do I qualify ?

    Did you already have an award before the hearing? If not are you sure it was daily living you scored all the points for?

    No I didn’t have an award . I scored zero and took it tribunal. It says I’ve scored 2 points on 4 different factors of the daily living component therefore qualify for the standard rate but it says appeal refused so I’m extremely confused ?

    You will need to contact HMCTS.
