Hi there
Some people are waiting who applied in Oct seems like there are massive delays in some areas -
Ok thanks janer

Yes, waiting times can be quite long for some people at the moment @mookie.
If you didn't keep a copy of your form, it might be worth taking a look through the PIP descriptors again to jog your memory. Some people find it helpful to make some notes prior to their assessment. -
Thanks again Tori ,I kind of wished I hadn't started this application ,maybe I should of left well alone x
