Good morning to you lovely people,

Well hubby had a text last Wednesday saying his the health professional as sent us your report (it was a paper based assessment). We will make a decision it may take 6 weeks. Then this morning 20th April had another text stating his review is complete. He as been in receipt of DLA and then moved to PUP for many years. We are so stressed about the results. Any thoughts

    Him having a paper assessment & a quick decision isn't indicative of any particular outcome.

    You could try the online proof of benefit service in a day or two, which might save you waiting for the letter to arrive in the post.

    You can also call PIP but they won't always give out the information over the phone.

    How have previous reviews gone? Hopefully if they have been positive, and nothing much has changed, then this outcome will also be good - but the waiting is horrible I agree. Kimi87's advice to check the online proof of benefit service sounds like a good idea

    Hi

    We have tried that route but my hubby does have the relevant id, ie passport or driving license. Anyway I contacted pip and the amount which is being paid into our bank account on the 6th May is the amount which would be paid for enhanced on both. So that's telling me he is still getting pip but we don't know for how long. What do you think.
