Hi, my name is Lornaw1! WCA lasted about 14-16 minutes. Should I be panicking?

I had a work capability assessment today and it lasted about 14-16 minutes. Should I be panicking? ( I am 😒 )

    It wouldn't be possible for anyone to predict anything at this stage. Some are shorter and/or longer than others. Once the report is retuned a decision can take up to about 12 weeks. 
    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.

    Hey @Lornaw1 and welcome to the community. :)

    I'd try not to panic too much, everyone's assessment will be different. It's all down to how much information was given and how many clarifications the assessor needs. So one persons may be five minutes, another's may be two hours.  But we're all keeping our fingers crossed for a positive outcome for you. :)
