    PIP requested I submit my review application September 2022, telephone medical assessment end of August 2023, finally did a final DWP telephone assessment 11 September 2023, yes one year on, no wonder they wanted to check my submission was still relevant, but told me there and then that there was no problem, and I got my paperwork this morning, 16 September, 10 year award. I must say though that my PIP assessor lady was thoroughly pleasant as we’re the medical telephone assessors for that and ESA a fortnight earlier, but there was a lot of evidence for both reviews that my condition had worsened.

    Out of interest as I‘m currently about 7 years into a 10 year award and just wonder if you were on a 10 year award before the current one was awarded?

    My condition hasn’t changed so a bit different from your case but my current award was advised to the DWP by a tribunal judge so I was hoping I’d just get a “has any thing change” letter from the DWP in 3 years time. I know I’m hoping but just hoping not to be put through the mangle again.
