Work capability assessment

bobby71

Hi all, I filled in my UC50 last July I had my work capability assessment at the beginning of February I have phoned UC and spoken to my work coach and it's a waiting game, normal decisions normally 4-6 weeks mines over 8 weeks now heading to 9 all I have been told is that my health conditions are more complex, I have been updating my UC journal each time I've been in hospital and I have more procedures to come this month I'm currently in the lcw for work category

My work coach has been great I just need to know who I should ask why it's taking so long any advice greatly appreciated thanks

Sorry you've been waiting so long @bobby71, it's never easy. It's really difficult to say why it's taking so long, but as Kimi87 mentioned, it can sometimes go up to 12 weeks on this sort of thing.

Hope you're not waiting too much longer to hear back! Keep us posted ☺️

I wonder if they may have contacted your GP or consultant to request any additional Information on your condition/s.
