Confusing PIP letter

Today I received a letter informing me that the DWP have 'now got the information and reports they need about my condition and how this affects me for my claim to PIP'. They then say they will contact me as soon as they've made a decision.

Does this mean that they have done the assessment based on my forms and I will not have to go for a face-to-face?

For background information: I was awarded PIP enhanced daily living from March 2014 without a face-to-face and recieved my new forms to be filled out almost two years to the day from when that was awarded. I returned my 'how your disability affects you' form on the 27th of May (I had an extension granted due to a hospital stay).

Hi and Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explain where everything is

It certainly sounds as if the assessor has made a recommendation to DWP without needing to see you in person. I would say you can be 'cautiously optimistic' about your chances of avoiding one of these.

However, I'm afraid we can't draw from this any conclusion regarding what the eventual decision might be.

DWP are currently taking around 8 weeks to make a decision once the claimant's file has been returned to them - although this does vary from one area to another.

You might want to bookmark/favourite this on your web browser now so that you can find it easily in future. This will allow you to return with further questions/comments about your PIP without having to start a new topic each time. It helps us enormously when everything relating to the same claim is kept in one place - and I hope you will find it useful too
