Hi I had my home assessmen on wednesday for pip. It was a lot less painful then I was expecting, but still stressful. The assessor actually said at the end with the evidence provided, I should have been a PBA
On average how long does it take for the decision to come back and when can I ring up to request a copy of the assessors report?

Hi and welcome,There's no averages for timescales because there isn't any. Backlogs are just part of the reason a decision can be delayed.Wait a week to request the report, then ring DWP. When you receive it use the PIP descriptors online to compare the dots next to the activities/descriptors to see what's recommended. They usually go with the report.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.

Hi I applied for pip, I did the form and sent it back, a letter came and got told I didn’t get it so I did a mandatory reconsideration then still didn’t get it so I appealed and after two weeks I got a phone call to say I have been awarded daily living pip, I got a few points for mobility but not enough to get the reward. It will probably take about 3 weeks to here depends how busy they are and if they work in date order too.
