PIP review update - success! was created by cynical_optimist
Hi all,

An update to hopefully help people going through review feel a little more positive.

I was sent my review form in April, and returned it ASAP.

In November I was sent a date for a telephone assessment.

On 23rd December I had the phone assessment. It was 75 minutes long, quite thorough, and the woman seemed fine to talk to.

On 28th December I had the message that the DWP had received the report, and I requested a copy of the report. That arrived and was actually pretty accurate (I have a few quibbles but they'd make no difference to my claim so I am happy to let it be.)

On 11th January I got my letter saying I've been awarded Standard Daily Living, and Enhanced Mobility, with a review in 5 years.

I'm so relieved, both to have got the right level of award, and to have a slightly longer gap between reviews.

Best wishes all,

R
