hello, I was just wondering is anyone could let me know when they had there work capability assessment ? I have been putting in sick notes on UC from GP since 20th February 2024 so I am aware it isn’t that long ago but just wondering how long I could be waiting for an assessment from others story’s/experiences? Thank you

    It varies considerably for everyone. Some wait just weeks and others can wait quite a few months. 

    Most have assessments so you should expect one of those. Once an appointment becomes available you will be contacted. 
    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.
