I submitted a claim for PIP approx 7 weeks ago and have not even had an acknowledgment of my claim from dwp. I called and they said it’s been with the HA 5 weeks and to allow another ten weeks ! Is this normal?

Hi M


In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ

My full name is showing, how can I stop it?



The DWP only send an acknowledgement of a claim if a claimant includes a mobile number, but recently quite a few people have reported not receiving one - so it's a bit hit and miss.

The turnaround rates vary considerably so although some people have got a decision within eight weeks or less, lots of people are waiting very much longer.
