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.

Thank you for your reply poppy. My anxiety is making it difficult for me to relax but I will try. Do you think I should contact them? Thisay give me peace of mind but I always hate the process of assesments so am In two minds

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 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?
