Have you been referred for a work capability assessment? This will need to be done before any decision is made.

yes i went to that 3 months ago all im getting of the people i speak to is you will be notifiyed they will not check this up for me or anythink and when i do ring up they say i cant speak with a dicison maker nor can they and all i can do is wait , but ive seen 5/6 people i know have there assements and claimed after me and i done and sorted im starting to get annoyed with them i dont have a clue what to do as i know its well over the time scale

There's no timescales to any decision. Backlogs are just part of the reasons a decision can be delayed. If your report was sent to audit then this can delay the process significantly. Have you requested a copy of the assessment report? This will give you some idea what the decision is likely to be because they mostly go with the report.

yes i have also asked for one but they told me i dont get one nor need one at all and i just have to wait for everythink from the decision makers to finish
