Am currently on LCW but am asking for consideration on LCWRA as New health issues have arised since awarded lwc....due to send back my questionnaire although it is late as I have struggled with it...today I recieved a letter saying I have a telephone assessment next week...but I haven't sent back my questionnaire uc50 yet....is this normal for assent before sending uc50 back and will they wait to receive it before making decision ? Are they fast tracking my case as I already have lcw ?

    It isn’t normal no but if you don’t return the form by the deadline, if you have a vulnerable marker on your file DWP will use their own discretion to continue with the work capability assessment. Seems like this is exactly what they’ve done.

    If you’ve now finished the form then I’d advise you to post this back to them so that they will receive it before your assessment. This way they will have new information. 

    Just so that you’re aware it’s not a reconsideration you’ve asked for, it’s a change of circumstances that you reported.
