hi, gogglebox star has had good news from dwp regarding pip claim. i am now entering the 12th week of waiting since applying for pip in early feb 2020. i have no income at all, not eligible for universal credit etc...i am a good listener online but am getting really fed up at being lost/forgotten by the dwp. never in my life did i imagine i would have to ask for a food parcel, for many years i helped the homeless/elderly on a voluntary basis with paperwork and social security benefit help. ive nearly used up my planned funeral money should anything ever happen, i cannot believe i cannot get any help whatsoever!!! utterly humiliating situation

Hello @katho31, I'm really sorry you're in this difficult situation.
Can I ask if you've got any income at all? Do you claim ESA? And do you know the reason you're not eligible for Universal Credit etc?2 -
hi, ive sent you a post but it may have gone onto another chat site, i get no income whatsoever, not eligible for esa or uc, my husband works part time and is 8 weeks into recovery from prostrate cancer so will only return to work 1 june. we dont have children, pay full council tax and are baffled as to why i cannot claim anything??0

thank you, I will try both websites now. the lady at dwp was a little abrupt when I rang up last week and when I asked had a decision been made she said it is with the assessor0

been on the entitled.co.uk benefit checking website, its taken myself and husband an hour and when we got to the end we couldn't get a linking code, only a code for myself, not my husband. im so tired and in pain and know im deserving of personal independence payment, its making me ill and angry. going to have to ask my mps case worker to bring me a food parcel tomorrow, had enough:(0
