    Hi Jen, waiting times for a PIP assessment can vary. For my first initial face to face assessment, I waited about 8 weeks.

    Hi Jen

    It usually take 2-3 weeks for the PIP2 form to arrive. please ring them if it takes longer. From the date on the letter you will have a month to complete and return it,  you can ring and ask for a 2 week extension and if that is not enough then it is possible to ask for a further 2 weeks, a case manager will be needed to grant this further extension. The form needs to be received by them by the due date not just posted
    Be all you can be, make  every day count. Namaste
