They tell everyone 8 weeks but it's more like 2-12 weeks, sometimes longer.

It depends on the work load in you’re area about decisions, The best thing you could do is Request a copy of your Assessment Report, This should tell you if you’re likely to receive PIP, But from what I’ve read Decision makers don’t always go with the report.poppy123456 said:tanbang said:Sorry this is a silly question so today I had my assessment and in 8 weeks I hear back then what will happen I’m new to all this

I have no idea yet, I’m assuming the decision maker will go with the assessment report and refuse me, Then I will have to make a mandatory reconsideration, Its a lengthy frustrating process I’m afraid .tanbang said:@leeh098

I have Anti social personality disorder, Autism and OCD, I do not understand complex verbal and written information, I have anxiety too, I barely leave the house, Body feels like it’s tingling, Always feel like people are looking at me, Which has got me into trouble for saying ‘What are you looking at’, But the assessor did Not write any of this in her report at all.tanbang said:@leeh098
can I ask what affects you on a daily basis?Mine was for mental health, anxiety disorder Phobias0 -
It taken 2 days to receive my Assessment Report, Keep me posted about yours please, I’m preparing a MR letter as we speak. Just incase the Decision maker goes with the report, I sent evidence from my Autism Diagnosis too, which they didn’t seem to read either, it’s frustrating knowing you’re telling the truth, But the assessor doesn’t see anything wrong with you.tanbang said:1 -

This is because PIP isn't awarded based on any diagnosis, it's how those conditions affect you against the PIP descriptors.tanbang said:
No, not really. The majority of people are successfully awarded PIP with no problems at all. Remember on an internet forum you will mostly only read the bad stories. If someone had a decision they're happy with, they have no questions to ask so we don't hear their story.0 -

The report is a recommendation only and you don’t score points, only a decision maker scores the points. It has been known for them to go against those recommendations.tanbang said:
Once the decision is made if you’re not happy you can request the Mandatory Reconsideration.1 -

@tanbang sorry to hear about your report, but as others have said, nothing is confirmed yet, and there's always mandatory reconsideration.
Let us know when you hear more, and we'll help and support you as best we can
@leeh098 let us know how you get on too, please don't hesitate to ask any questions if you need to!
