    Usually once the decision is made it will be uploaded onto your journal. For this reason i'd say this situation isn't normal.
    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.

    I just looked back at your previous thread and i see that you had your assessment quite sometime ago. I advised you to contact your local MP in that thread, did you do that?

    I left it as my work coach said to give it a bit longer, I assumed if they have made a decision like she said that they have at least read it now as she said that she could see the decision is made but doesn't give a reason why

    How much longer does your work coach want you to leave it? It's been 8 months since you had your assessment and still no decision. It's beyond a joke and not acceptable. 

    Please contact your local MP, give them your name and address, tell them exactly what's happened and hopefully they will contact UC on your behalf. Usually this will get them moving.https://www.parliament.uk/get-involved/contact-an-mp-or-lord/contact-your-mp/

    I do find it odd that after you mentioned bringing in your MP your work coach asked you to wait. Now has told you something has been done, but you've still no evidence of it 5 days later.
    They/Them, however they are no wrong pronouns with me so whatever you feel most comfortable with
