    I too am waiting on a decision without a f2f I was sent one but rang asking for a home visit as I'm agoraphobic got a letter last Thursday saying I could have home visit a letter the day later saying I did not need a f2f as they had all the information they needed.
    Like daisy I am on a knife edge waiting I filled the form myself without help and now think I will be denied as I probably didn't put enough information

    How long have you bee waiting angie ? I relise i am extremly lucky to have got to this point in 6 weeks but it really is causing untold stress and uncertainty . Cant imagine how others coped for 8-9 months , i believe i would truly be sectioned if i had to wait that long 😔

    Does anybody know what the difference is from the old forms ? Why have they introduced a new form when so many people have filled in the old ones ?

    The new form is shorter and goes to the DM at the DWP first, He / She will then look at it with all the evidence sent in and evidence from peoples last PIP,

    If they cannot come to a decision they will then send it onto ATOS Capita and the like for a F2F.
