    You will likely wait several months for an assessment and after the assessment wait up to three months for a decision. Your existing payments will remain unchanged until such time as new decision is made.

    3 weeks to hear from them? That’s extremely optimistic. There’s huge backlogs at the moment so it could be several months before you hear anything. Most people have another assessment even for reviews so you should expect one of those. 
    Your current award will continue until a decision is made on the review, unless the award ends before a decision is made.

    Hello @johnboy1860

    Thank you for posting, I hope you are well today. 

    I'm sorry to hear about what you went through at your last assessment, nobody should be made to feel frightened because of something said to them during one of those. If you do want to make a complaint to the DWP, this page contains information on how to complain about them or an organisation that provides services for them.
