Hi everyone, i just wanted to know if everyone recieved a text to say that pip was awarded and did anybody get one to say it wasnt awarded & how long did this take after the medical assessment? I applied for pip end of september and had my telephone assesment on the 21/10/22. Im so anxious and hate waiting lol

It can take up to 3 months to get a decision following the assessment.

Up to 12 weeks, sometimes longer which was advised in your other thread here. https://forum.scope.org.uk/discussion/97311/hi-my-name-is-ray1234-when-will-i-receive-my-text-decision#latest

Okay so today the person who did my assessment had to ring me and ask me more questions because they were told too, is this a bad sign? Im so anxious this whole process has been horrible for me and because I didn’t no this was going to happen it put me on the spot and i couldnt think of all the things i should have said 😩

Sometimes they need to ring you back to ask you more questions if they didn't get all the information they needed during the assessment.

It takes 3-5 working days to go into your bank after payment was sent.

I have no idea when payment would have been made sorry. Hopefully, you should receive the money owed by the end of this week. You can also ring PIP to ask and they will tell you which date the money will go into your bank.
