Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

Hi and Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explain where everything is
Welcome to Benefits and Work
The assessors only make recommendations, it is DWP who make the final decision. Therefore it is not possible to give the claimant the decision on the day of assessment. DWP seems to be taking 2-4 weeks to make a decision once the file has been returned to them by Maximus.

The assessor doesn't make the Decision so they can never tell the claimant what, if any, group they are in.
You will be told in writing by the DWP.
