    Hi @LRI and welcome to the community! Did you scan a copy of your report? You could print it out and sign it. Alternatively, you could ring DWP to see what they say. But you may have to fill out a new claim form.

    Please do let us know how you get on. :)

    Hi
    I kept a copy of it ,that’s how I realised I hadn’t signed it.Ive tried to call PIP helpline but was left on hold for over 30 mins 
    It had to be sent back by 2/10/19.
    only leaves 2 weeks to get another one and send it back again?

    Take a copy of the copy, sign it and send it. No need to ring to ask for another form.

    The original has already been sent minus the signature .. send the copy and they'll have both.

    Hi @LRI. Have you managed to send off the copy? It might be worth including a brief letter explaining what's happened.

    They have put a note on the computer details on my file and will send the form back for me to sign.
    they were very helpful 
    thank you for your help everyone ??
