    Hi,
    It can take between 2-12 weeks, sometimes longer. Mostly the decision will stay the same but we have had some members who've had the decision changed at MR stage.

    Hi and welcome to the community 

    Did you follow up the call by putting the mr in writing , if not I would suggest contacting them to ensure it was lodged

    Hello there @leanne901

    I wanted to wish you a warm welcome to the community, I hope you are well this evening. 

    I hope the above responses have been helpful, do feel free to have a browse of our PIP category for any related queries, and our categories page also contains links to our various benefits sections.

    This is a very supportive place, so I'm sure you'll enjoy taking part, if you ever have any questions then don't hesitate to ask. I hope that you have techniques in place to manage your anxiety, I tend to find that this self-care page on the Mind website is quite helpful. Hopefully hearing from other members on here helps to ease it too.
