pip telephone assessment done

misstracey

I had my telephone assessment done today at 10.30 it was a lady it lasted 1 hr 10 mins she did not rush me i felt i was listened too this time not like last time she went through everything on the form finely with me missing out nothing kept on saying sorry she had to ask me certain questions i was very  anxious on the phone as i am on my own  my son had left home .If i did not understand anything she would phase it in another way for me too understand I actually was able to say how my illnesses effected me in depth and she was typing all along the interview all in all i feel relieved its over but i felt she had took all my conversation and type it down as i could hear her typing while i was speaking she told me to ring my doctor for a consent form so she could speak too them and that it will take 8 weeks for dwp to make a decision thought i would let others know thanxs x

@misstracey, hello and welcome. Now you have had your assessment wait a week then phone the DWP and request a copy of your assessment report and on receiving it you can work out what your award may should be but you still have to wait for the award notification letter.
