Had a phone assessment at end of call was told 8weeks to hear back is that good or bad ?
I've heard people say they get a decision within a week or less ?

Hello 🙂 I was told the same-8weeks. And now it has been almost 6weeks and I am still waiting for a decision.
Some people wait longer than others,but why...I don't have a clue 😅0 -
Unfortunately it may take anywhere from 2-12 weeks to get decision letters.

Fingers crossed it won't be too much longer @bigpineapples and @Blue_eyes, and if you need a hand with anything in the meantime, please ask

It can be a long wait, and I know it's easier said than done, but focusing on other things really helps!0 -
I was told at end of call it can take 8 weeks . I mean 8weeks is a long ole slog to think about it everyday but it's something I have to try and expect .0

That 8 weeks could be up to 12 weeks...
