Hello

I had my telephone assessment this morning and it ended at 10.30. At 11.40 I received a text from dwp to say that my report has been received.

Worryingly quick, or should I not read anything into it?

Thank you

    HI,

    I had a text to say my report had been received within 30 minutes. I think the HAs are typing it whilst talking to you. I shouldn't worry. My assessment lasted 1hr 29mins.

    When you do recieve your decision, if there's anything you don't understand remember you can ask for a copy of the HAs report. You don't automatically get it - usually just a copy of the points awarded in each category. There will also be a summary and a justification of the points allocation which you need to have a look at and check everythings correct.

    You can also ask for a copy of the DRs report - they don't usually say very much.

    Just ask for a copy of the further evidence the DWP has used in reaching it's decision and it will all become clear.

    Best of luck x
