annie4 try not to worry, to be honest, you can only speculate. The time it takes or how soon they come back to you makes no difference at all. It could be they are 'very efficient'. Whenever you think about it, distract yourself with something you enjoy doing. Remember you have options if the decision isn't 'favorable'.

It's perfectly normal to for them to return the report on the same day as the assessment. It doesn't mean anything other than they had completed the assessment and written the report, once this is done there's no need to hold onto them.

Decision can now take up to 12 weeks.

Is this the case in all areas as my texts says I will have a decision within 6 weeks? Xx

You should allow up to 12 weeks but it could be less or more than that. Usually text messages say up to 8 weeks but timescales are only ever a guide anyway.
