    Hello, I’m very new to this Scope Group and hope someone could kindly give me some advice regarding my PIP Assessment?.

    I had my over the phone PIP consultation and a week later received a txt to say it was back with the DWP, how long will it be roughly till the DWP make the final decision??.

    Thank you.

    HI,

    There's no timescales for any decision but as a guide anything from 2 weeks to 3 months, sometimes longer.

    hi poppy and others your really great on advise and would love you advice on this i get enhanced pip mental health , and also for neurological problems i didn’t get mobility due to going to doctor at the time which was odd couple of months to discuss my mental health as wouldn’t of been able to have medication im on high antidepressants and high anxiety medication and also neurological medication which is used for anxiety too i do not leave my house and communicate with other via face to face and my doctor has recommended phone appointments to make all easier but i do tend to miss some follow ups or will ask doctor to ring back another day , would anyone recommend doing change of circumstances for the mobility part if i could be eligible which i think i should be but don’t want to risk losing my award as it was hard process the question i got asked about my children and my self felt so degrading also had mri and was told loss cervical loridosis
