How long after a case manager for PIP will you get a decision?

It may not be the decision letter. I realise you had your assessment a couple of weeks ago. A decision can take up to 12 weeks from when the report was returned to DWP.

If you haven't had the usual standard letter of "we now have all the evidence to make a decision" then it could be that. Other than that i can only guess what it could be. You'll just have to wait, i'm afraid.

I had the text to say they had received my telephone assessment

I realise it’s stressful waiting but there’s nothing more you can do. Try to focus on something else while you wait.

Ok thanks

i had a missed call then phoned today got told there was a letter sent out it’s with the decision maker 

This happened to me this week and I got myself all worried sick tbh 

The letter I got was a progress letter "we now have all the evidence to make a decision"

So atm I'm also just waiting for a DM to look over my assessment report, I agree it is really stressful. If I've not heard anything by next Wednesday I'm going to call and see if a DM has looked at it yet as far as I'm aware it has been passed to the DM but goodness knows how many is before me.

Try and not stress @celticgirl although I know how hard the waiting is.

celticgirl

Aw thank you did you have the missed call as well. . Yea it’s very stressful xx

Not that I'm aware off.

I was told exactly what you were told when I phoned for an update. The lady said its with a DM and a letter has been sent out.

Now I know yes it's with a DM but that DM could have more assessment reports to do before he or she reaches mine, or mine could be the next one.

I kniw it is 100% totally frustrating waiting.

celticgirl

Did you receive a letter first

The only letter I have received is the progress letter stating they have everything to make a decision and I received that letter at the beginning of this week.

I'm still waiting for a decision.
