Hi, I received a text from dwp today stating they had received the written report of my pip assessment but I didn’t have one? Has anyone else had this before? I did send evidence so didn’t know if it had been based on that, is this common? Thanks in advance.

    Thankyou. Do you know if this is a good or bad thing? @poppy123456

    It means that they think that have enough information to make a decision without having an assessment with you (or that they think you are at risk if they were to carry one out). Usually it means that you will get an award but you will not know until you get the decision letter which, as advised on the other thread you posted in, may take 12 weeks.

    @calcotti thankyou. I’m not expecting anything good, it has just made my anxiety peak that’s all. Thankyou for your reply

    You are welcome @emma2880. It is the very least you deserve.

    It sounds really difficult that it has made your anxiety peak. Would anything, in particular, help to reduce your anxiety at the moment?

    We are here for you and listening to you if you would like to share more with us. You don't have to face this, or anything else, alone if you don't want to.

    Take care for now and we will look forward to, hopefully, hearing from you again soon  :)
