Hi I had my f2f assessment yesterday - it took 2 hours. I have had text that dwp received the report. How long will I have to wait for decision? Also worried now that I didn’t send all the evidence- I mentioned to assessor that I had evidence with me but she didn’t ask for it. Thank you. I’ve never claimed benefits before but have had no choice but to reduce work hours due to severity of adhd and other conditions- doubt I would have kept a job if I didn’t work for MH in nhs and have lots of adaptations and support.  Thanks in advance for any help

    It can take 2-12 weeks for a decision. Please do remember that PIP isn't about your ability to work, people claim PIP and work.

    Welcome to the community @dollyd77 :) How are you doing today? 

    Thank you for joining, and for asking your question.

    As poppy123456 has said, waiting times can vary quite a bit, and can unfortunately be quite long. 

    More isn't always more with PIP, if that makes sense. Hopefully you provided enough evidence in your forms and assessment for them to make an accurate decision. 

    It's good to hear that you've been able to access lots of adaptations and support to help you stay in work. How have you been doing since that support has been put in place?
