    HI,

    No harm in ringing to ask if a decision is made. As you only just received the letter saying they have all the evidence then it can still take 6 weeks.

    I would call up to ask. Be prepared for a wait however. When did you send off the form?

    Hello, phone the DWP and request a copy of your assessment report then you can see what your award may should be but you still have to wait for the official notification letter.

    There's no harm in giving them a call @thedoc. Let us know if they're able to tell you anything. :)

    yeah, they got it on the April 24th, it took the assessor 3 weeks to send it, he only sent it when the DWP asked for it. I had the assessment on the April 4th lol. The report is full of discrepancies and contradictions.
