Hi, I was diagnosed as having copd 10 years ago.As my copd has got a lot worse i have claimed pip

I recieved a text from dwp saying we have recieved the written report of your pip assessment.

We will write to you once we have made a decision on your pip as a guide i will hear in 8 weeks.

I havent had an assessment yet so not sure what all this means.How can they make a decision

without an assessment. thanks
