    OH called today they confirmed that he had got standard rate DLA (odd applied for PIP) only take a little over 35 week's. How long does it take to arrive in the bank?

    It should take 3-5 working days from the date of decision. This wasn't the case for me as they made a royal !!!! up so ended up taking two weeks.

    What a surprise they screwed something up not like that's the case with the whole PIP process.
    Thank you

    I have been awarded PIP this week. I applied back in October finally had my assessment with NHS Lanarkshire on 19th of March, DWP received my report on the 20th of March, decision made on 27th March it was really slow process up to the point I had my assessment but it was pretty fast after my assessment I think this is due to NHS Lanarkshire doing the assessment for ATOS due to there backlog.

    I got the award I believed I should receive. I hope after the longs delays and wait you get the award your waiting on.

    mine was in auditing for 17 weeks total disgrace!!! call them every single day like i did the last couple of weeks, also for it to finally be sorted I called and said I am authorising Dominic Littlewood from bbc to discuss my claim and you must put a note on the system as he was out today and will be calling you in the next couple of days, surprise surprise I called back the following day and it was sent fully to DWP
