    Yes unfortunately they are standard texts sent out while a decision hasn't been made.

    Timescales after the assessment are anything up to 12 weeks.

    Hi @Bonzob14 welcome to the community.

    As Kimmy has said they are very normal texts to get, so nothing to worry about there. There can be a fair wait, so I'd suggest doing things to keep your mind off it. Even if it's just putting the kettle on. 😊

    hello again after asking earlier about the text I came home to a letter dated 3rd March to say they have got all the information needed now and they will be in touch with a decision so im guessing still a waiting game for now

    Thank you all for accepting me on here

    i don’t like to moider them and I do understand it can take a long time it is now 11weeks since applying for the first time for this so just wasn’t sure if they went from when you first claim or from the telephone assessment .

    The only way to find out is to ring and ask them what the delay is or wait for them to write to you.
