Pip award

whufcjay

Hi I received a txt this morning saying I’ve been been awarded pip , but for the last few days I’ve been trying to contact the DWP to request a assessment report form in case I wasn’t successful, but I’m not sure if I should still request it now as I’ve been awarded it . Is there anyway I can find out what I’ve been awarded before my letter arrives as if I’ve been awarded enhanced on living and mobility I won’t bother asking for the report but I’m worried I might of been awarded only standard and then I’d have to appeal , could I have your opinions please

Try the online service for award confirmation (I'm told this does not include scores etc).

I would recommend asking for the report anyway, so you have a copy for your records and come review time you know exactly where any why you were awarded points.

I couldn't bring myself to read through mine but wanted to know why I got Enhanced so skim read it, then filed it away.

I went to the gov.uk site to get proof but it wanted me to prove identity and I entered all my driving licence details but it said there was an error it the system , so had to come up , I’ve been told of an automated number that tells you about your award but it doesn’t seem to be available any more , so not sure what to try next

It may be worth calling the Disability Service Centre as they may be able to let you know a bit sooner @whufcjay

Hey Kimi87, just want to say thanks for the link, I am waiting for my award letter to arrive by post but checked online on the off chance and it's there. Same award I was on until 2029! A successful, paper based assessment. Sent the form back in December (in case anyone is trying to gage how long they are taking on decisions)
