Hi, I had my pip medical on the 1St october for Epilepsy with ongoing seizures, depression and anxiety. I asked for a copy of my report from dwp, on the points I've worked it out as 12 for daily life. 12 for mobility. Do dwp actually go off this?? Or do they look at and change the points? I rang earlier to see what was taking so long and they said I will have my decision on Wednesday.. Any advice or help would be great..

Thankyou

    If you had assessment on 1st October that is 5 or 6 weeks. Not that long really I don't think.

    They do have a lot of backlog work.

    Not sure how you worked out your points but hope you are awarded pip.

    Let me know how you get on

      I asked for a copy of the Medical report, this has the answers the medical professional wrote down.. There's a pip self test on the Internet that gives you points so I've put in the answers off the medical report. It's 3 weeks in my area to hear anything so 6 weeks is quite a long time. Thankyou
