    Hi,

    Sometimes there's enough evidence to do a home visit rather then you go to them. Home visits don't really mean anything other than they are coming to you instead. Wait a week after the assessment then if you live in the UK give DWP a ring to request a copy of the assessment report. This will give you some idea what the decision is likely to be because they mostly go with the report. Good luck.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
