PIP review timescales

Hi,

Wondering if you've recently had a PIP review, how long did you wait for a decision after they confirmed receipt of your forms?

I know some people have waited over a year but also see some people say it's been days later they've received the 'your PIP review is complete' text.

Merseyside area for reference.

I live in Yorkshire my review had to be in by January of this year which I did send in and I have only had it processed in November of this year done on paper so I’ve not actually had to speak to anybody on the phone like I did to get Pip in the first place and I got the same amount which is enhanced on both and they have done it for five years which first time round it was three

Sent in my renewal forms in September and have heard nothing. I posted about this and was told they have a year waiting list by other posters!

I work in welfare rights and decision times seem to be really random.

I've had a fair few wait more than a year, but occasionally someone will get a decision in 4 or 5 months. That's rare though, it's mostly 9 months or more.
