Delayed Renewals

Heard there’s a delay/pushing back for people getting PIP benefit if you’re renewal is up, has anyone read anything like this happening for LCWRA/LCW, has anyone been to a face/face appointment recently with this benefit for a renewal etc?.

    PIP awards are being extended for a lot of people but that still doesn't mean you won't still receive a review form.
    For the work capability assessment, there are huge backlogs but LCWRA is an ongoing award and payments will continue until a decision's made on a review.
    Face to face assessments are back on but only for some people, the majority of assessments are still done by telephone.
