    Hi Torim,
    I had my f2f the same day as urs. I also live in n.ireland. I received a txt on the 1st nov to tell me they received my report. I phoned for report to be sent to me which it was and am now awaiting a decision. I did phone today and was told there was a big backlog and that  I prob wouldnt hear the decision until after christmas.

    OMG !!! total joke..... I was awarded PiP in 2017 after a f2f for mental health issues but since then ( 20/05/18 ) I’ve become disabled and I still suffer the same problems around my mental health but I also now have mobility issues to contend with so what does the DWP do?! They’ve reduced my money by £8 a week!!!!!!!! So a local charity are helping me to resolve this and then hopefully (if the f2f isn’t blind) they’ll see that I struggle with everyday things and CANNOT walk with out both my crutches. Currently the guy reckoned I was able to walk 200 metres plus ....... I would LOVE for that to be true—- trust me . The guy from this charity said I have to request a a decision reconsideration so he’s written it all for me and sent it off so fingers crossed I’ll have a more favourable outcome this time around... it took such a long time to get the ridiculous decision of-£8 a week as it was so I’m not holding my breath as to hearing anything back anytime soon
