My PIP timeline - Decision waiting times?

Personal Independence Payment (PIP)

hi I applied for PIP and im a bit confused and dont really know how to figure out what my outcome could be. i know theres not really a way to know but im not sure if its looking good or bad?

heres my timeline so far:

6 Nov 2025 : called to apply for PIP, DWP sent. ’we will shortly send a how your disability affects you form…’

7 Nov 2025 : DWP sent ‘we have sent you a PIP2 form…’

17 Nov 2025 : I sent my PIP2 form off, recieved text from DWP same day ‘Thanks for sending your pip2 form…’

16 Dec 2025 : DWP sent ‘health professional is looking ag your claim…’

20 Dec 2025 : Assessment booked

5 Jan 2026 : Telephone assessment happened, lasted 7 Minutes.

Todays date is currently 27th of Jan ( 16 working days after assessment ) and i havent heard anything back.

The assessor over the phone told me she will try to contact my doctor because it will strengthen my claim and she wants to put it through without a longer assessment.

im not really sure what any of this means i applied for BPD ( EUPD ) and ADHD. Can anyone help Me understand how long it will take or try guess what this means?
