PIP Update- can anyone help... was created by Arthritic Annie
Hi,

My PIP award expires Aug 24. I received the review form Dec 23 snd returned it Jan 24. I received a text a few days later to say they had my form. Nothing for months then last week received another message to say they still had my form and they'll progress it as soon as they can. I may still need to see a health care professiona and they'll continue to pay my PIP until its reviewed. I'm in Northern Ireland. Can say advise on a timeline for reviews?

The worry is driving me mad...🤦‍♀️

Also I received my uprating letter today.

Thanks

Unfortunately, review dates are hugely variable at the moment - I got the 'we've received the report from Capita and will make a decision soon' text the other day 14 months after returning my review form, I know someone who returned his review form at about the same time and got a decision after about a month. Your review will be extended if they haven't made a decision in time for you. Good luck, I hope you hear from them sooner rather than later, but don't be shocked if you're still hanging on in 12 months <3

Hi Arthritic Annie

You are usually given an extension

We cannot give you a timeline as it varies across regions, we may have a member on the forum from NI who is in a better position to answer your question.
