    sue76,
    That's definitely far too long! I would think about complaining if it takes much longer. I wonder if there was other evidence you provided on or with your claim form that makes the DWP they shouldn't follow the report.

    I'd consider complaining about the wait because if you are turned down for PIP, the slow decision just means it's going to be even longer before you can start the process of challenging the decision.
