    Hi @David2484 welcome to the community! The waiting time can vary as it depends on or if there is a backlog of claims in your area. On average, it takes 6-8 weeks but can be earlier or longer. Let us know if you have any further questions :)

    Hello, if you have had your assessment then you can request a copy of your assessment report if you live in the UK. On receiving you can work out what your award may could be but you still have to wait for the official confirmation letter from DWP of your official award.

    Hi,

    There's no timescales to decisions. The letter you received is just a standard letter that is sent to everyone. It can still take weeks once that is sent. Hopefully not too long.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    This is a standard letter. I filled out the form and sent it off. Then impatiently waited for a while to see if they had decided. There’s no telling how much time is wasted. All you can do is to contact them daily to see what’s going on in their minds really. I know this is not easy but hang in there.

    If you're asking about the recommendations for the points. Then look at the back of the report there will be activities/descriptors with dots next to them. Use the PIP self test to see what score, if any was recommended. http://www.mybenefitsandwork.co.uk/pip/indexxx.php
