Unfortunately the time scales vary quite a lot we really can't be specific.
Once you've sent back the form you can contact the health assessment agency to enquire about waiting times for your assessment.
After that it can take up to 12 weeks for the result.
Again that too varies - some people hear within a few days, others are waiting a few months.

Welcome to the community @Shev. As Kimi87 says, it's really difficult to predict these things unfortunately. But I hope it all comes through quickly for you!

It's not easy at all @Shev. It's such a stress going through all the assessments and when you're already dealing with so much it can be a real weight on your mind. Fingers crossed you hear back soon!
