    It will take 2+ weeks from date of letter you've received.  If you haven't heard after a month, I suggest you phone PIP.  Meanwhile, I suggest that you phone PIP and ask for a copy of the assessors's report which will give you a good idea of what your award is likely to be.

    Hi @lawler

    @Matilda is right, it could take a few weeks but do give them a call to check up.
