Hi @Megan69 and welcome to the community!
Here is what I found on the Citizens Advice:It can take several weeks or months for the DWP to make a decision. If you haven't heard anything after 8 weeks, you could contact them to ask why you haven't had a decision letter yet.(https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/benefits/sick-or-disabled-people-and-carers/employment-and-support-allowance/help-with-your-esa-claim/getting-your-esa-decision/)
Please do feel free to look round the community and let me know if there is anything I can do!Scope
