still waiting for hubbys decision. Applied 05/08/2013, f2f 27/02/2014, dwp received report back 22/04/2014.

just rang dwp to be told that yesterday something came up which they need to query with Atos, has anyone else been told this? It took Atos 7 weeks to send report back in the first place so im hoping this "query" doesn't take as long.

on top off a bad day (acupuncture went wrong now in agony) yet another daily call and still no decision, I pointed out that I could have made a baby in the time its taken them to decide wether or not im accepted for a pip payment. she has "tasked" it and recommended a call back. I despair!!!

Hi all im new here i have been reading the thread over the last few days and TillyFloss i hope you get an answer soon as DWP got my assesment back same time as yours 10/4/14 and i got my decision today. but only after about 200 phone calls.

welcome mike and thanks, I am glad to hear you have had your decision. I know it shouldn't be much longer now, its the knowing nothing that really gets me like I said to the woman today how do I know its not just sat on the system not being looked at and when they do they have queries a little more info would be appreciated.

You need to do something like i did when they kept saying it's with the dm it won't be much longer now. I asked how much longer and was told there is no time frame so i explained that as i have nothing beter to do i would sit and ring back every 5 minutes until i had a decision. I made 64 calls in one day it never worked though. LoL On a serious note sit tight you will get the right decision soon my decision took in total 47 weeks.

mrstups

does anyone know how long it takes for dm to get "clarification" from Atos ?
