Just came across your site trying to find out about getting PIP award letter after assessment, as mine was just a change in circumstances. I had to ring three times to get report and had letter 8-11-17 stating they had all info to make a decision still waiting.

    Hi @wilko
    When was your assessment? They usually say a decision will be made within 8 weeks, though the christmas period might throw that time off a bit.

    I hope you hear soon, do let us know!

    Hi sam, my assessment was on 25-10-17 rang three times to get the report, received a letter dated 8-11-17 stating that they now have all the evidence to make a decision, rang last week told its in the decision makers hands, rang again today and a note being put on my file as its only a change in surcastance unable to walk as far as I could at first assessment. The report has given me 12 points for this but still got to wait for letter not after a car got a Picasco room for second scooter and room for passengers.
