HI and welcome,I'm assuming you're talking about the work capability assessment, is that correct? If so then were you found fit for work? If so then when was the decision made?
-
My last assessment was 6 months agy

Were you found fit for work? If so did you ask for the Mandatory Reconsideration then Tribunal? Sorry but more information is needed to be able to help you further.

Thanks for your reply I will contact UC tomorrow

No problem. Unfortunately, i can't advise without knowing all of the details.

Hi @ozzleo60. Did you manage to get through to UC?

Hi @ozzleo60
Have you contacted the British heart Foundation to see if they can support you with your claim? They also have an online community and you may be able to ask them specific questions about your condition.Joanne
