    I'm assuming you've been sent either a UC50 or WCA50 form and returned it?

    You'd need to contact the health assessment agency to enquire about waiting times for an assessment.

    Unfortunately the WCA process does take time to complete, depending on what capacity the assessment agency has.

    You can look on the assessment agency website at their complaints process, and make a complaint over the delay if you want to do so.

    No it wouldn't have any bearing on the medical assessment itself.

    If you click on the purple text in my previous reply "Find your health assessment provider" this will take you to a page where you can locate your health assessment agency by area.
