That will be for them to decide.

so there is a chance that they can make a decision based on the new health condition i emailed in with out me having to go for a f2f,ecause of the pandemic dont know how long that i would have to wait for a f2f

Hi reporting a new health condition normally starts the whole process off again with new forms and assessment 

I doubt reporting change will  influence original need for f2f as it was that original health issue they need f2f for not new one 

However if you put everything in new form about all your conditions then they will assess everything

was i sopposed to get new form for new health condition as i wasnt told this

It is my understanding if you report a new condition you start the process again bit I may be wrong 

Speak to your work coach 

Did you report it on your journal or just on the email

i reported change of health condition in journal and also emailed the wca  assessment with new health condition

It is your work coach that refers you for the WCA process so imas suggested you need to speak to them
