PIP review was created by tillyboo
I sent off my PIP review which was recieved on the 26th August.
This morning I recieved a text saying "Your PIP review is complete. You should receive your decision letter in 2 weeks. Once you receive your letter, contact us if you have any questions. Do not call before you get the letter as we will not be able to tell you the decision. Please remember to contact us if your circumstances change."
I've been hearing reviews taking months & months. This as been 2mths & 2 wks.
Should I be worried? Anxiety as gone into overdrive. My last 2 PIP reviews were paper based with 4 year awards each time.
I'm on high rate for both.
Can they just stop PIP or would the letter say its stopped?
After this year with esa to uc migration which was a nightmare & everything else I am going through, I dont have the strength in me to fight if my awards stopped etc

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

Hi tillyboo
There is a bit of a backlog with reviews, as they are concentrating on new claims.
If you have an end date for your current PIP, then yes DWP can stop at the end date, if your claim is then successful you will receive the backdate from when your previous claim stopped.
You would be sent a letter informing your PIP will be stopping at a certain date.
We have heard from members who have received a letter extending their award due to the backlog, but you cannot guarantee this will happen.
