Pip form received text message alert

hi hi all
so I posted my pip form on Thursday and I was just wondering whether I’ll get a text msg alert to say that it’s been received? (I have provided my mobile number and I did get a text msg when they sent out the form to me).

I’m now worried because I didn’t send it recorded delivery and used the freedom pat envelope that came with the form 🙈

There is no need to send it recorded delivery at all
You might get a text but not guaranteed also it does take a while before it is actually processed and scanned by DWP which is when it shows as received
You can always ring and check when it gets near deadline and tell them when you sent it and they can extend the deadline if needed
My last review took them 3 weeks before it was scanned onto the system
Oh do they scan the form and evidence? I thought they sent the original physical copies to the assessors. 🙈
The whole application process can take several months from start to finish
