    It means that DWP oppose the appeal. Obviously that is what you would expect - if they didn't oppose they would have made an award.

    This means that your hearing will go ahead.

    Congratulations on the outcome.
    (Note - it’s a tribunal, not a court.)

    Great news. The longest PIP award is 10 years with a light touch review. There's no indefinite PIP awards.
