Hi, do you know approximately how long the current waiting time is for an assessment.
The application was submitted on line at the beginning of August. Thanks

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

Hi BonBon.
It's almost impossible for us to give you an accurate timeline at the current time, as it can vary so much depending on where you live and the number of assessors available to carry out assessments. The DWP has also been dealing with a backlog. If you can face it, I would ring the DWP to ask what the current status of your claim is.

To save you a phone call. I phoned them today, i sent mine in beginning of August too. The guy at the DWP was awful, he repeatedely talked over me as I was asking questions and scoffed when I asked when I may hear something. He said they can't possibly say but we're talking months.

Hi BonBon,
I was told more or less the same as Geraldine around the second week in May. I've just got my award (I phoned the helpline on Monday) but the letter hasn't arrived as yet.
I was into the 20th week since my form etc had been signed for.
Not a quick fix, but you may be luckier.
Regards,
Phrank.
