    Yes very much so , but called Dwp and there looking into why its took over 5 weeks  for hp to do a ordit on me . Also called hp and its apparently  being  checked still . I got to call hp bk on Friday  to see if its been sent bk to dwp . Also depends on when they send it back I hotta wait 6 to 8 weeks  for  a dwp  case manager to make a desition so it's a waiting game still . 24 half weeks from start till now n still no end at sight grr  . But thank you so much stupid audit  ppl need a set time scale I recon  x

    Hi @lunaWolf1974 Welcome to the community, 

    An audit isnt a check on you it is just a requirement that a certain number of assessments are selected at random to be checked to ensure the process is being done correctly.

    Unfortunately it does slow things up though, but I would not worry too much, you can request a copy iof your report once DWP have had it and this will give you indicati9on of what assessor has recommended. It isnt the final decision but most decisions go with the report
