I was sent an application pack employment support last may, this was mislaid so I completed another one in late July. I attended a medical assessment on 4th December, how long do I wait for a decision.

Hi @111, and welcome! Waiting times can vary according to location, so it's very difficult to predict how long you will have to wait. From our members' responses, it seems to be taking around 3-8 weeks to hear back, although it can take much longer. Best of luck and do keep us updated!
