So after reading posts on here and requesting my report done for PIP. < PBA
I have added my points up it shows 11 for daily living and 14 for mobility.
My question is do dwp go with the assesment report or is there a a high possibility they may still not award me it I am on my 30th week from applying to, to date.
My report got givin to a case manager 2 weeks ago.

They do mostly yes but it has been known for them to go against it. If it's first time claim and you're not transferring from DLA then if awarded money owed is usually in your bank before the decision letter is received. Timescales, anything up to 12 weeks.

I rang today and they said my claim is classed as priority. And they will ring me back today if possible to give me the decision if not then I have to ring up Saturday and hopefully by then the decision letter will be on there system. Is priority a good thing ?0

I've known a claim to be priority in this way before. Rememebr that when you ring PIP you're talking to someone from a call centre and not someone from DWP.

Oh right okay maybe it's because it's been 30 weeks already maybe. It's all confusing me tbf but I will call tomorrow and see if I can get some answers as is driving me crazy 🤪 as I said my asseent letter looks to be very positive but it's wether or not the decision maker goes with the lady's suggestions or not. I find it bonkers that they pay for an assement but then can say they don't agree with it. It all seems a little pointless1
