Hi all,

I know from this forum that PIP timescales are one of the world's last remaining mysteries but was wondering - is 21 weeks and still no assessment date standard for PIP nowadays? The waiting is almost as bad as the sight of the "dreaded envelope" landing on the mat.

Thanks in advance to mods and all who share their experiences.

Hi aberdeenangus

This is a terribly long time and I would ring and ask them what is going on. You need to confirm that your records haven't been overlooked.

Hi BIS, and thanks for the swift reply.

I called and was told it's with the Health professional - so at least it isn't in a shredder I suppose.

I'll message any update if, and when, they come.

Thanks again

Hi aberdeenangus

I'm glad you phoned. As you say, at least you know that your records haven't been lost. Hope it's not too long before you hear.

Hello

Just wanted to add, I'm a few weeks a head of you in terms of waiting to hear about my PIP review and from what I've been told, my file has been sat with the health assessors for FOUR months now.

Thanks for the reply Matey,

I'm sorry you're having the same issues but on the plus side they might get round to working on them in time for Christmas ;-)
