    Hi mookie
    Glad your assessment wasn't as painful as you thought it would be. Hopefully you'll get the result you want. Good luck

    Hello @mookie

    Aaaaand relax...  :)  I can definitely relate to that feeling of 'phew, thank goodness that is over' and we all have our fingers crossed for the expected outcome.  I find sometimes the lead up to events we are anxious about can be worse than the 'thing itself' and you should be proud of yourself for speaking up and applying for what you are entitled to.

    I've tweaked the title of your thread so our members know what it relates to and wish you all the very best.  If you could keep us updated, that would be appreciated.  Good luck.

    @mookie once you receive text message from dwp that they've received the report, you can ring them and request it like I done.
