I applied for pip on the 18th of Feb 2021 apparently my evidence is with the assessment team and is currently in the process before the process of arranging an assessment. ??♀️ how many processes are there? Apparently these are processed in date order from when they receive them... mine was received by the assessment team on the 28th of May and it's now august.

Hi and welcome to the community
There are many people still waiting who applied in Dec last year so try not to think you are the only one
The dwp are quoting it taking 10 months for claims to be complete -
Hi pip received my claim on the 25th January and I only had my assessment 2 weeks ago I got my report last week but still waiting on decision they said probably early September

It's crazy, a friend of mine who lives in my borough applied in early march. Shes already had her decision a month ago??? I just dont get how this system works? Apparently the assessments are done in date order from the date they are received from the DWP. I cant see how that is right if people are still waiting for an assessment from December 2020 and my friend had one from an application started in March??? -

Oh wow, so this makes things difficult I assume? No one can seem to tell me what's wrong with me either. I caught covid at work last year (I work in healthcare) since catching covid I've been left with permanent problems. Balance issues, loss of hearing to name a few but, other than calling it long covid we cant work out what's actually been damaged.
Hope you get an answer soon.
