Hi,We are currently in the middle of a pandemic and there's huge backlogs because assessments were stopped for quite sometime. Your LCWRA is an ongoing award until a new decision's been made. When you're referred for a review you will have a message on your journal, until that happens there's nothing for you to do.Please try to relax for now.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

There’s no need to contact anyone. Your LCWRA is ongoing anyway.Even in normal times the timescale they give you is just a guide. If there was a time limit on it then it would be different.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

I can imagine this would cause you some anxiety @here97, but I hope that poppy123456's reply has put your mind at ease a little?
Are you receiving any support for your anxiety?
