I heard via text today from dwp that my PIP review has been completed and I should hear via letter the result. I've spent a lot of today crying cos when I first applied for it back in 2022 I had to fill in a much more extensive form plus have an assessment. To me this sounds like a refusal. What do others think?

    Welcome to the community @claire59. I really wish I could give you some reassurance but there's just no way to gauge which way it's gone until you get the confirmation. It doesn't necessarily mean it's a no. I will keep everything crossed for some good news and quickly. Hope you're able to try and find a distraction in the meantime.

    I've just downloaded my statement of entitlement on Gov.Uk One and it says I've been awarded the same as I currently get but for 6 years this time. I'm so relieved I can't stop shaking

    I was going to say, if you've not had an assessment it won't be a refusal but then saw your update. That's excellent news @claire59, I'm so pleased for you. 6 years is a good amount of time and means you can put it out of your mind for a while.
