hi every one , just an update.. today i received a letter from DWP , i was expecting it to be a appointment for a phone assessment but it was the award letter , i have been awarded enhanced for both from previously having standard for both and the award is ongoing , i can't express how happy i am , i have been on pip since 2018 and i have Rheumatoid Arthritis, which is still in progression, and COPD and last October i was admitted to hospital with double pneumonia and sepsis ... the whole process from DWP receiving my claim has been 12 weeks and paper based award , i did send in around 10 consultant letters and discharge letters from the hospital , i now finally feel that i have got the award i should have had at my last review in january 2021 but that's in the past , finally got there in the end
