Hi I'm getting stressed because I have sent my Uc health assessment form with all the information about my health and along with the support worker's letter which was written very short and didn't sent anything about my physical health I dnt know my mind was just everywhere I was so confused and couldn't send any other supporting letters 
Is it gonna effect my lcw or lcwra ? Now I'm so restless just thinking about these letters every time 
I made PIP claim with pip I have sent everything but not with Uc I'm so upset:-(

    Hello @skhan95

    Great to see you here, thanks for posting :) 

    We can't say whether the letter from your support worker will impact the claim negatively or not, but if you've included plenty of detail in your assessment form then I would hope not. The letter should act more as an additional piece of evidence. 

    If it concerns you, could you not send another version of the letter that explains everything that you want it to?

    Hi there 

    You can still send in the additional evidence 

    Just put covering letter with it remember to put your ni number and name on every sheet of paper 

    Also keep copies for yourself

    And it's been 20 days I have sent the form I hope they haven't made their decision yet as it's too early? Am I right ?

    You will have an assessment first before they make a decision and there ars huge delays 

    Does it not give a return address on your letter or form presuming you have kept a copy 

    I don't know the address but will see if I can find it or maybe other members may know 

    @Ross_Scope do you know the address for uc50 evidence to go to

    I think  I can find the address in Uc journal they have text me before regarding a uc50 form

    I canr find the address on the Internet all it said is to call them if you have lost the pre paid envelope 

    Your journal may be worth trying

    @janer1967 says they now work weekends. 

    I was unable to find an address online that I was confident about, so calling is probably the best thing to do.

    It us hard to get response from work coach when you put a message in your journal when if ask type of query mark it payment or service issue as these then go to actual dwp staff and not the call centre 

    If you are not happy with your work coach you can request a new one 

    Don't get stressed about call just say you want to send further evidence and need to know where to send it
