Hello, I’m Amanda. I received a text last week to say that my assessment report had been received by DWP. How long will it be before I hear anything else?

    Up to about 12 weeks after the report was returned.

    Afternoon Hannah, not too bad thanks. The whole process of applying for PIP has been exhausting not to mention extremely stressful, I’ll just be glad when it’s all over.

    Glad to hear you are well!

    It can be :( many members have said they take regular breaks when filling in the forms. I always say, make sure you have a treat for the end of the day. Cake, a cuppa tea... whatever makes you feel cosy :)

    Yes, it took me about a week to fill out the form. Luckily it was only about 3 weeks after they received it that I had my assessment. It’s just a waiting game now to see how I’ve gone on, fingers crossed 🤞
