    So I called today. The advisor confirmed my back pay would be paid on 2/2. He advised my next payment would be 24/2 and every 4 weeks. The DM went with the assessors recommendation. Wishing everyone good luck. Happy Friday xx

    @bluelagoon remember you will have called an outsourced call centre agency and don’t always give accurate information. 

    Also different areas have different time scales. 

    Fingers crossed you hear something soon xx

    All areas have different timescales and different backlogs. It will also depend on each individual case, sometimes it just takes longer for a decision to be made. Nothing more you can do but wait.

    @bluelagoon my assessment was sent in the 18th Jan and I was told to expect to wait 4-6 weeks but I know from here it can be anything from 8-12! Best to try and keep busy I suppose. I think it varies by area etc.

    My assessment was the 12th so only two days difference so hopefully not much longer xxx

    @bluelagoon they do say 2-12 weeks as it depends on the area and work loads. I know from my experience that it will be constantly on your mind. Fingers crossed you get a decision soon. Happy Friday :)

    @treborsenoj did you get the award length they recommended in the report too?

    They awarded 3 years with a review in 18 months which is what’s on my report xx

    Generally, review forms are usually sent out 6 months before the award is due to end.

    @poppy123456 the advisor gave me the date of 18 months before but I guess they don’t always give accurate information

    Just had a phone call telling me I have been awarded but can’t tell me at what rate but anything is better than nothing
