    Hi,

    There's no timescales even in N. Ireland. It all depends on the backlog in your area. There's nothing you can do but wait unfortunately. Most people have face 2 face assessments, so expect one of these. Good luck.

    There's really no time scales. Here in the UK some wait a few weeks while other wait months after returning the form.

    I’m in the UK and was told by the charity that helped me fill on my forms that I would know within 6 weeks of them receiving the form whether I’d have to have a f2f, well it’s now over 7 weeks since I had the text from them stating they’d gotten my forms and 13 weeks since I made my first call to apply so I’m in limbo too :(

    I think some areas have serious backlogs. Mine was done in 10 weeks start to finish, from phone requesting back to decision but I’m in scotland. Whilst I appreciate There are no firm timescales, it does seem to vary depending where you are in the U.K.
