2nd year into PIP was created by Bica
Good evening,
2 years ago I was awarded PIP thanks to the help of these great moderators until March 2017.
Today that dreaded brown envelope arrived, which I was quite shocked . I know they send them out early but do you think they are jumping the gun here?
Thanks in anticipation
Bica :unsure:

Hi Bica,

I'm sorry that this came as such a nasty shock to you. I'm afraid that it is DWP practice to start the PIP reassessment a full year ahead of time :(

I have just answered a very similar question here Please take note of my comments re treating this reassessment the same way you did the initial claim.

Many thanks Mrs Hurtyback for all this information, it looks like I will have to call in re-inforcements again and go through the " slog " all over again.
Thanks again♿️

After completing my PIP2 and posting it off I received a text on the 3rd May from DWP saying they have received my application and will contact me in the near future to arrange a f2f.
Today not even 3 weeks since I posted it I have been given a home assessment next week, unfortunately I have other appointments on this date so I contacted Atos and re-arranged a new one second week in June.
Don't you think that this appointment was very very quick considering the time scale some members have had to wait ?
To be perfectly honest I was surprised.
Also will they have checked my notes on the last award and compared them to this application ?♿️

Three weeks isn't that unusual. :)

It's not impossible that they will refer back to your last award, but it is quite unlikely that it will happen.
