    Hi there 
    Are you referring to a PIP claim ? 

    If si it can take around 8 weeks after assessment for a decision 

    You can request a copy of the report which will indicate the recommendations 

    The period you have waited isnt excessive they estimate 6 months for whole process and there are huge backlogs so some are taking longer than normal

    Hi @albenq :smile:

    Welcome to the community! It's good to have you here. 

    As our other members have said, unfortunately there is a bit of a backlog at the moment and it is taking longer than usual to process applications. 

    Hope that's helpful for you to know? Please do get in touch if you have any further questions, or you just fancy a chat :)

    Welcome to the community @albenq :) Has the above information answered your question? I hope you aren't waiting for too much longer.

    Just to let you know, I've moved your post into our PIP category as it seems maybe that was the benefit you were asking about?
