hi I am new to the group I had my esa medical assessment late October last year and have still not had my deccision. I have rang them on several occasions only to be told that a deccision has not been made yet they have escalated it three times but still not received anything yet does anyone have an idea on how long I have to wait

Hi
My assesment was late oct and ive just heard today. You usually get a reply within 3 weeks but it can take longer. I had 6 different medical reasons so i had to be questioned about how each illness affects me . As you can imagine my assesment took 6 times as long .
All you can do is ring once a week to ask the same question as you have allready . Hopefully you will hear very soon.

Hi @davem, and welcome to the community!
Sorry to hear that you've still not had a decision- the waiting period can be really difficult. It can take up to thirteen weeks and sometimes longer to get a response: times can vary between places and so it's really difficult to predict when you might hear back. Do keep us updated, and fingers crossed for the outcome you're hoping for!
