I would be cautious of doing this, each page of the PIP2 has a bar mark that is unique to you and needs to be readable when the document is scanned by the DWP.
It is perfectly OK for you to type your answers and attach them as extra pages to the PIP2, just make sure that each page has your full name and NIN at the top and that they are numbered, we recommend "page X of Y" so that it is easy to see if pages are missing. Make sure you clearly mark on the form where your answers are and on the relevant page that you are answering question X.
Attach the pages to the back of the PIP2 using a staple or make a hole in the top left corner and use a treasury tag, string or ribbon to the form. The pages need to be easily detached so that they can be scanned by the DWP.

I wouldn't wait and would phone the DWP to confirm whether they have it or not.

It's up to you but I would recommend you check with the DWP!
