PIP : how long for you?

[Kittyletmein]

I am intrigued to know. Those of us residing in south England how long from sending off your new PIP did you get awarded?

Thanks

Kitty

Hi,

I am in south east.

My DLA was a renewal. It was dealt with quickly. However, my ESA has been running for 10 months and still awaiting assessment !

Nightmare eh!

Am so sorry to hear that. Hope she doesn't have to wait much longer.

I submitted my form about 15 weeks ago and looking at Jackie's post, I may be waiting for some time longer!

Hi hopefulmind,

Here's wishing you dont have much longer to wait.

Which part of England are you from?

Hi Kitty!! I live in North Wales and my friend submitted her form a few months back, had her home interview last month, and received her award yesterday!! We fall under Capita here so I don't know if that makes any difference? XX

[Kittyletmein in reply to sue32]

Good point, I am wondering if there is a regional difference in England even though its covered by same agency.

Thanks for your reponse

I applied (for the first time) for PIP at the end of March this year. I had my assessment last Friday and was told it would be 4-6 weeks before I recieved a decision. Hmmmmm.....

I live in the West Midlands and though i waited a year for my Atos assessment, i am now in wrag grrr, i claimed for pip in July, got my home interview on 28th October and on the 8th Nov just 12 days later i got the decision that i had been successful, now all i need to know is can i now ask to be put in the support group, as so far this month i have attended 3 interviews at the jobcentre, which is ridiculous considering i have been given the enhanced mobility award,
