Hi Charliem

There is a massive backlog in most DWP departments.

Remember when you hand in your fit note you are then in the assessment phase, if you are successful your claim will be backdated to the fourteenth week from when you handed in your fit note.

Hi i havent sent fit notes with this questionaire is because when i did the questionaire in 2021 i was not awarded because i did not fill it in correctly so i appealed it nov 2022 and won my case and esa said dont need to send any more fit notes and was put in the wrag for 18 months but because my health has got worse since then i asked esa for another questionaire which they sent me this time i had professional help filling it in correctly this time,so when i contacted esa to find out whats happening they said its with medical team so im just waiting now but its taking so long.
