PIP phone call out of the blue after renewal form. I'm worried it was too short/quick?

Hello

I was wondering if i could get some advice on here.

I have been clamining pip now for at least 10 years for my disabilities and in march i sent off my renewal form.

Yesterday i got a phone call out of the blue from a women from atos saying she needed to ask me a few questions about my form , She asked about how far i could walk and if i could bath myself and the phone call only took 14 minutes which was very strange it was all very rushed.

Today i got a text to say that the dwp have got everything they need a desison will me made within 8 weeks.

I am very scared that this was out of the blue and very rushed and it has made my anxiety shoot through the roof. I am thinking this is a very bad sign that it was so short and quick it wasnt even an assessment as i didnt get a text to say i was getting one. Can anyone tell me if they do this sometimes and if it is not a good sign. Thank you

Hi @niknikjau. I have heard this a few times, so I wouldn’t get concerned.
