PIP decision. . Finally!

Posted , 10 users are following.

Hi all. .

Finally got a decision through today by text. Phoned the helpline and was shaking when they told me the award. Enhanced mobility and dally living!

I thought I'd write on here to let people know it is a long wait for a decision, mine was 5 weeks. Yes, it's stressful and depressive but it's now over.

Good luck everyone and so hope you get the outcome you deserve. ??

    So glad you've received your decision. No more stress and worry. Just wondering if it took 5 weeks from a face to face interview or all together? Thank you

    Hey was this ur first time pip a cos I went last week for a reassessment for worsening conditions and running out of the time u get on award the assessor was also shocked I was on lower rate pip. I suffer from mental health problems and bad leg pain and suffering from bad back pains which is going to be a life long disability that's going to only get worse and I I'll be getting a walking stick very soon. I suffer with bipolar and agoraphobia and anxiety and depression I m on extremely strong anti psychotic medication which I took on asse and was asleep on half of it, yes I just want to no if that's wat u were on before and how long they took to get back to o u and did they back pay if the amount I's higher

    Than ur previous award well done for fighting ur way to the higher rate I no that's not easy these days no matter wat ur conditions
