    Hi,

    The calls last different lengths of time for different people. If you have a lot of health conditions to explain then the call will last longer than someone who only has a few.

    You can now either wait for the decision letter or call them and ask for the assessment report to see what scores the assessor recommended.

    Hi @rigilsalim786

    The length of calls can vary from person to person. Hopefully you wont be waiting too long for the decision letter

    Can I actually ask right now what the scores they recommended and the report because somebody said that no you have to wait until they give you the points before you can ask for assessment report?

    @rigilsalim786 My last one four years ago lasted 90mins ,I was floored by it,literally, paranoid for 18 months after and still haven't gotten over it,here we are again, just sent review forms back. My panic attacks have increased ten fold, waking 4-5 times in the night almost in a state of choking. The thought of another phone call from someone with a robotic voice or God forbid a f-f , is distressing me to my core.

    Best of luck to you.

    With PIP you can request the report as soon as DWP themselves have received it.

    That sounds awful. I hope this review is much quicker for you @Doglover2.

    You did all you can do, now go easy on yourself. You have no control over this part. May you get the decision you deserve.

    That's totally understandable @Doglover2, it's a big deal but I'm sure you'll do great and before you know it, it'll be out of the way. You've got this šŸ˜Š
