    Yes perfectly normal. Lots of people don't have the decision on the day. It doesn't mean anything other than they couldn't tell you the decision at that time. You should receive the letter within the next week.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Hello @Shazzag52

    So lovely of your daughter to help you with your hair and nails. Ignore the DWP guy and please don't feel worthless, you are not. Do you have a good support group around you for those days you feel emotionally spent? We are always here if you want to chat or vent :)<3
