AI:Hello everyone! I hope you're all doing well. Last week, I had my renewal assessment with an assessor after waiting for almost a year. I have multiple health conditions, including type 1 diabetes, neuropathy, and anxiety. I'm curious to know about your experiences after participating in a review towards the end of your existing claim. How long did you have to wait for a decision? Did your award increase or decrease? It would be really helpful to hear about your experiences. Thank you, guys!

    Once the assessment report is returned to DWP a decision can take anything up to 12 weeks. Some wait less and others wait longer. It really does depend on each individual case and backlogs in your area.

    My current award remained the same my last review but that was in 2021. I'm currently going through another review but still waiting.

    Applied Jan 23 ,0 points ,Mr May 23 which they received 5th June and failed to put it on their system.
    Medical notes sent they still haven't received them. 
    MR still 0 points.
    Appealed to tribunal August 23
    Date set for 11th December but no letter or text.
    This didn't happen so now I've been waiting 24 weeks for a new hearing date.
    I applied in 2021 too 0 points and 0 points on MR.
    I've been through all these wonderful threads to help with tribunal so fingers crossed I will hear soon with a date.
