    Hi,
    That is no time at all to be waiting. Backlogs are huge and the estimated timescale from applying to having a decision is about 10 months.
    Most people have assessments so you should expect one of those, which is likely to be by telephone. All you can do is wait, once an appointment becomes available you will be contacted.
