PIP award

We have just received out first decision on a PIP application. Awarded enhanced for daily living and mobility, backdated to date of application.
All down to your guide so many thanks.
However, it is almost 7 months from application to decision. Is this a record??

Hi c,

That is good news, enhanced for both components as well !!!

Thanks for the feedback, it's much appreciated.

I don't know whether 7 months is a record, but it is most certainly unacceptable.

Hi there, sorry to say its not a record, we applied in July and only went for an assessment last week and have to wait another 8 to 10 weeks for the decision.
Congratulations on getting your award Best wishes Louise xxx

Think mine will be a record !!
I applied in August, 2013, i didnt send the form back heard from ATos in December, 2013 that they were contacting my GP for information phoned them told I could make an appointment for F2F told them i couldnt get to where they wanted me to go for medical they agreed to wait till they had reply from GP, so filled in form and sent back to Atos and copy to DWP. Phoned Atos January, 2014 told due to information sent by GP I'm getting a home assessment and they dont know when am still waiting time so far 6months and havent had assessment yet and no date when.
