Hi Mandyh

Sorry to hear of your husband's experience. Don't read anything into them having received the report. Some assessors have had trouble with the system and it has been taking longer to load up reports, but that doesn't seem to have happened in your case. If you are concerned about what might have been written, ring and ask for a copy of the assessment report. It takes about 10 days for it to arrive.

Hi Mandyh

I would wait until the end of the week and then ring the DWP office - dealing with your claim and ask for it now. (It may or may not have appeared on the system - don't worry if it hasn't). You do not have to wait for the decision to receive the assessment report.
