You cant apply for a UC50 form this is the form for a work capability assessment and you will be sent one after you have submitted a sick note for a period of 28 days or more and the referral is done by your work coach.
If this is what you are enquiring about ? If so the process can take a long time as you need to complete and return the form with medical evidence , you will then have an assessment and then a decision made .
You have to wait 3 assessment periods from submitting your first sick note to be eligible as well. But normally this time has passed in the time it takes to get a decision anyway. It could take several months
Any further questions just ask
