    Hi,
    I must admt that's no time at all. Backlogs are currently huge across most of the country. It's not unusual to be waiting several months and longer. We have members here waiting as long as 10 months.
    You should expect another assessment because most people have them. This will be through either telephone or face to face. Once an appointment becomes available you'll be contacted.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling stressed about your PIP review @debbiejohn. It's understandable given that you don't have control over when the assessment will be. Is there anything that you do within your lifestyle that might help with the stress? For example, when I'm stressed, I make sure to get outside and speak to my loved ones :)

    do you think I will have an assessment
    Yes, most people do so you should expect one, as advised.

    You seem to be in the know so i have another question 😊  I just had an award review jan....sent that back! 
    My award finishes officially on Dec 22 this year .So when i'm asked to renew in approx July? is it 6 months before the end of an award? (of course, as long as the award review is ok) then im assuming its July i would have to reapply again?  Im asking as i noticed you mention the long wait times... Would i have an answer before my award ends in Dec 2022? 
    And what if i havent had a reply of my award review, by the time i have to RE apply in July? 

    I can see this all overlapping maybe? and bottle necking

    If you are doing a review now, when that is concluded you will have a new decision with a different end date. (Was the current review started by you?)
