Hi everyone, I had a text to say they received my report in the 26th October, I received a text message today 10 Nov to say they still haven't made a decision yet, is this a good sign or? Just wait and see? Anxietys through roof

    It can take up to 12 weeks to make a decision. The text means exactly what it says, they haven’t made a decision yet.

    @rhiannonglave Hello there and welcome to our online community. How are you today?

    The wait to hear the outcome of a PIP claim can be difficult to say the least and I wish I could speed it up for everyone! Is your anxiety at a manageable level?

    I hope you hear something soon, but in the meantime try and distract yourself and take it one day at a time. If you need us for anything, just give us a shout.
