hi I’ve just applied for PIP for the first time and had a 2 hour telephone assessment. Is this normal or should I be concerned about it? The assessor kept telling me I was doing really well - does that mean I’m not going to get PIP or am I worrying too much? Thanks for any help and sharing any previous experience :-)

    Hi @Overwhelmed1 and a warm welcome to the community

    Telephone pip assessments can definitely vary in time so it's not really something that's a red flag, I know it's easier said then done but try not to worry about it!

    Hopefully some members here on the community will share their experience to help put your mind at ease😄
