Hello,
I had my pip assessment phone call last week. It lasted for 2 hours 20 mins which I thought was very long. I have severe rheumatoid arthritis, have had the disease 8 years I was diagnosed when I was 19.
I had my pip assessment phone call last week. It lasted for 2 hours 20 mins which I thought was very long. I have severe rheumatoid arthritis, have had the disease 8 years I was diagnosed when I was 19.
I’m just worried and mulling over how the phone call went. The nurse was very very nice which I’m overthinking and I did break down and get upset a few times on the phone call.
Before she went off the phone call she said I done amazingly well on a very difficult assessment. I’m just wondering if this is a good sign or was she being nice to trick me?
Thank you x

It doesn’t mean anything other than she seemed nice. It’s impossible to predict anything at this stage.
Once the report is returned a decision can take up to 12 weeks.0 -
Hello @lb96, welcome to the community. I hope you're doing well today. Well done for getting through your assessment, it's not easy at all.
Unfortunately, it's really difficult to tell whether it'll be a positive result from the way the assessors speak to you, but fingers crossed it's a positive result for you. Keep us posted with how you get on. I'll pop your post over to our PIP section in case you have any more questions0
