I put a claim in for lcwra in march and I had a phone call assignment 2 weeks ago and I still haven’t heard anything what happens now?
Once the work capability assessment is completed and the report is written, it's returned to DWP. From there a decision can take up to 12 weeks. If you have access to a journal you will receive a letter on there once the decision is made.
thank you is it normal for the hole thing to take so long as I knew someone who’s claim took 3 and half months altogether
Timescales vary wildly for everyone. Backlogs and each individual case all add to the delays. So, yes it's normal.
It can vary quite widely @nell123. Some people here have waited over a year! Though that is uncommon and often a signal something has happened. It is often waiting for the assessment that takes the longest and you are past that now, so it should not be much longer 😊
does anyone know a time frame after the phone call assignment?? I was told 2 weeks but it’s just gone over 3?
As Poppy advised you previously, it can take up to three months following the assessment to get the results.
The value must be greater than or equal to 1.
