  Hi and welcome 
  
  You can call the helpline and ask them for a copy and ask how long your award I'd for 
  
  Try ringing first thing to avoid long wait

  Hi @alanj57 - & welcome to the community. As advised above, ring the PIP enquiry line (Tel: 0800 121 4433) open Mon - Fri 8am - 6pm., & ask for a copy of your PIP decision letter. This letter will say when your current award is due to end. Be prepared for a rather long wait, it could take anything from 20 - 60 mins, to get through. Monday might be a bad day; perhaps try 8am on Tuesday. Hope this helps.
