Hello, I am a bit anxious about my PIP review as it will be 4 months since it was sent in, at the end of this month. I heard people talking about the Gov1 site for extensions of PIP awaiting review and wondered if the site also gave results for those who have submitted reviews already??
I know I could just create an account and look, but I am scared to "put my head above the parapet" in case it is the wrong thing to do...may sound paranoid but the DWP can be difficult...

I am also worried about a planned family holiday to Europe over a week or so at the end of October as of course I have to notify the DWP. I am concerned that they may contact me for an interview or phonecall in that period when I am away without my file of papers, and I am thinking of not going. But I would prefer to find out if there has been a decision as some people have said they found a decision online somewhere and they hadn't been informed by letter yet...
Could anyone advise please? Thanks

Hi ostia

Here are the instructions from us on how to use Gov One Login to see if they have given you a PIP extension:

and here is the feedback from Forum members using the service to check their award:

Let us know how you get on.

Hello, I used the Post Office with my Passport to verify ID as it was too tricky with my phone.
Logged on to see that all it says is that i have an award til the end of November this year.
No reference to the award being under review or anything else.

Should I stay calm and assume it is just being reviewed?? Thanks,.
