PIP assessment still wish audit but how did my assessor know?

jam199035

hello just wondering if anyone can help, I had my pip assessment 3 weeks ago and it’s still with audit

my only question is the assessor said he would send it to audit then gets sent to dwp? But I thought these were random checks? So how would he know if mine was going to audit?

When your assessor says the report will be sent for audit before it goes to the DWP decision maker, they’re just describing the standard full process.

It's pretty standard for them to explain the full process so if the DWP doesn't receive the report immediately you don't worry about delays.

hi,

thank you it’s just confusing that during my assessment he said it would go for a audit but surely if they randomly picked how do he know?

As I mentioned, he doesn't know for definite. He will have been explaining the process, not guaranteeing that yours will be sent for audit.

Hi @jam199035 unfortunately we don't know the average wait time as there is a lot of backlog at the moment!
