    PIP decisions can take 2-12 weeks after the assessment report is returned to DWP. It's been about 8 weeks since your assessment so you're within the timescales still for the decision.
    For your UC work capability assessment decision, if it was just Limited capability for work then you won't receive any extra money each month.
    If the decision was Limited capability for work and work related activity you will receive an extra £354 per month from the 4th month after you reported your health condition. You need to find out exactly what the decision was for your work capability assessment.

    Hello there @paulw and thanks for reaching out this morning :) I hope the reply above has helped to reassure you about the long wait you've been having. 

    I am sorry to hear about the abuse in your childhood, I can't imagine what that's like to go through, so thank you for explaining. You've mentioned having a trial next year in June, are you getting all the support you need with that? 

    If you can let us know how you get on, and if you hear more about your PIP decision too. If you need a hand with anything in the meantime please ask.

    Alex
