    Hello @lucy71 Pleased to meet you welcome.

    Thank you for joining and sharing.

    I am one of the team of community champions.  We guide, advise and help new members who join the forum.

    In response to your question can take I believe six to eight weeks.  To process.

    I know this is stressful. You can contact the PIP helpline if you wish to know how long they will be.

    Helpline number 0800 121 4433

    Please if we can help with anything. Please ask.

    Happy to be supportive.

    Take care.

    Hi @lucy71 and welcome

    Is this a review of an existing claim or do you not have an award in payment at the moment ?

    Hi @lucy71 and a very warm welcome to the community! Thank you for coming to us regarding your PIP application, we understand this can be an extremely stressful time for people! On average it takes 6-8 weeks to hear back, so I hope you are not waiting much longer! You may find the PIP board on the community to be a useful tool as it has things all to do with PIP and the process. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help! :)
