Mandatory Reconsideration
If you are refused
Two things happen next if a claim is disallowed: an internal DWP re-look (mandatory reconsideration), and then, if that fails, an independent tribunal.
Per-condition tribunal outcomes are not published by HMCTS. Read our guides for how to challenge a PIP decision.
Limitations
- DWP does not publish per-condition clearance times or per-condition tribunal outcomes, so those figures are not shown here.
- PIP condition categories reflect the primary disability recorded at the point of claim; many claimants have more than one condition.
- This is the DWP category Anxiety and depressive disorders (mixed). Separate categories exist for other anxiety and depressive disorders on the same basis; see the believability-gap study for the full breakdown.
How to read these figures
- Source
- DWP Stat-Xplore and the published DWP PIP statistical releases. Every figure on the page carries its own source link and the period it covers, and no figure here is recomputed or modelled by us.
- Population
- everyone in Great Britain with a PIP claim recorded by DWP under Anxiety and depression (mixed). Claims are coded by DWP to a single primary disabling condition, so a person with more than one condition appears once, under one code.
- Suppression and small numbers
- DWP rounds published volumes and suppresses small cells to protect identity. Where a group is too small to publish a stable rate we do not print a rate for it, and we do not fill the gap with an estimate.
- What these figures are not
- They are averages across a whole condition code over a whole period. They are not a prediction about any individual claim, not a measure of how disabling a condition is, and not a statement about anyone's entitlement. Decisions are made on the evidence in a single claim.
Full methodology: sources, periods, coding and known limitations.
