PIP review timeframe

Hi I currently have a PIP award until mid July. It was extended during COVID. I filled in my review last October. I am in a constant state of anxiety because I have no idea what will happen. I imagine they could extend again or send a really last minute review appointment or just renew my award. But I have no idea how this affects my current UC award or my partners CA. Will I be left in a last minute scramble to get everything sorted out? Does anyone know how long renewal reviews are taking?

    My PIP was due to run out in January. I received a letter in December telling me it was extended and almost straight away got a text to say my review was complete! I’d returned my form in the previous March

    Thank you both for posting your experience. I'm glad they were both positive and you didn't have to go through phone calls. I'm still scared to hope that it will be straightforward for me.

    I am currently undergoing my review, even though my current award doesn't expire until August 2026.

    They sent me the form in April and I completed it and sent it in.

    They sent me the usual text a few days after receiving it and now its just a waiting game.

    PIP review 14 months from returning form to final award.

    Was sent to HAAS for a pointless assessment phone call as final decision made without even referring to assessment, based on form and evidence sent in March 24.

    I've received the extension letter until July next year. So just need to keep my fingers crossed for a quick decision.
