How long do the DWP take to contact people with a decision after a face to face medical with Maximus? How long can they leave people waiting? It was nearly a year between my form and my medical. Also my medication has increased since the medical. Should I let them know or wait for the mandatory reconsideration if they fail me? Can I do that by telephone? Thanks guys.
