    Hi,
    Some are returned within a couple of hours. It means nothing other than "it's been returned to DWP."

    Update,,, regarding my claim I got a letter this morning to say they've all the information they need to make a decision on my claim they already told me they had my report so why do they have to send me that letter out weeks later?

    Thanks for the update, I'm not completely sure of the answer here but hopefully it's good news, perhaps it is just in case you thought about sending in further information.

    It is a rather pointless letter because a decision can still take 2-12 weeks. All it does really is cause even more anxiety.

    It's just a standard letter which serves no purpose really

    Hello @honeywell01_ it might just be for their own admin records, so they know they've confirmed to you in writing properly, but of course the post can be quite slow sometimes. It just means you've got two records now that everything is underway!
