Hello All
Hope all Is well with everyone, or things are going as well as can be.
Not been on for a while, I realise that my Anxiety, does upset some people, as I can be very repetitive at times. Last time I asked If anyone knew about waiting times, for reviews, for LCWRA support group. Ive just managed to pluck up courage, to ask the dwp, as previously, I was told, that due to covid, they didn't see reviews, taking place, In the forseeable future. I didn't quite understand what she meant, and just guessed, that It would be In 3 or 4 months. So today, I asked again, as I was to embarrassed before. She said,
It basically means you won't need another assessment due to this change as you already get the highest we can pay for someone with health conditions
I now understand, but as she didn't say, whether this was actually going to be put In writing, Im a bit unsure, whether she can officially tell me this ?
Sorry If I've upset anyone, or been annoying In any way
I just really struggle with understanding things, sometimes.
Thanks In advance for any replies

Unless you were placed into the severe conditions group then you will have another review sometime in the future. At the moment all reviews have been placed on hold because of the backlogs of people waiting for their first assessment.Receiving the highest they can pay you doesn't mean that no further reviews will take place.0

Thankyou Poppy
I'm In support group, because of various Mental Health conditions
Not because I have a terminal illness. So, I thought as much, to be honest. Its just with her saying that, It makes it sound like, I will never need another assessment ever again. Thanks for your support0
