Just a couple of days from the assessment.

Does anyone know how long a decision tends to take from the assessment? The assessor said to chase at 6 weeks if I hadn't heard.

I just wanted to say thank you for the guides and forum support. I was awarded 20 points for daily living, and 16 for mobility, which is great.

I forgot to ask, what does it mean when it says the award is 'for an ongoing period?

Congratulations on the award. Well done.

An "on-going" award is as close as PIP gets to an indefinite award.
