    You've had what's known as a paper based assessment.

    This is done based on the information you sent, with minimal or even no further input from the claimant.

    Sometimes this is done by the health assessment agency, or increasingly reviews are being kept in house at the DWP.

    You can still request a review of the decision (Mandatory Reconsideration) and appeal to an independent appeal tribunal if you are unhappy with the outcome.
