Hi. I applied in April - had the message to say they’ve received and may need to send me for an assessment before making their final decision. Still heard nothing

    HI,
    At this stage you don't do anything but wait. Backlogs are huge and some parts of the country are worse than others. It's not unusual for it to be about 10 months from the time you apply to having the decision.
    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.
