Hi everyone just wanted to share my timeline on a first pip application.
17th march rang for the form. Received it appropriately 2 weeks later,returned end of April had text on the 24th may from dwp to say they had received the form. Received a appointment for a telephone assessment for 9th August that was cancelled an hour beforehand. New appointment received for 24th August. Today i had text from dwp saying they need to speak to me immediately about my esa claim which i have been on along time totally panicked turns out i have been awarded pip and they wanted to complete a form over the phone for sdp. So relieved just waiting for the letter now.
