Hello @Arthur243, welcome to the community 😊
Sorry to hear you're in the waiting game for PIP, it can be a rough road so I hope it comes around quickly!
That's interesting that you worked in the benefits department, did you find it helped you know what to do with your benefit applications?
Feel free to take a look around the community and join in wherever you fancy!
