    Decisions usually take 2-4 weeks, however in some areas they have a back log.
    You can ring and ask for a copy of the assessment report

    I think it took mine about 4 to 6 weeks,But once you have been to the assement you are in for a long wait after that because of the way they mess you about.I had my DLA stopped on the 18 Jan 2017 I went to the tribunal won my case but the DWP are appealing against the decision and I am still waiting now,It's going to take a long time (unless you are very lucky) but don't give in.

    When was your tribunal ?
    Have the DWP asked for SOR and have you received a copy ?
