Hope everyone is enjoying the sun.

Tomorrow will be two weeks since the DWP decision maker has had my report and the wait for the brown letter in the post is making me nervous. Can I not call to see if a decision has been made or do I have to wait for the letter. Thank you x

    Hi,

    No sun yet where i am but from tomorrow there will be.

    You can ring them anytime you want to ask. I know you're anxious but 2 weeks isn't really that long. It's very rare for them to go against the report though. Hopefully not much longer.

      I gave them a call and a decision hasn't been made yet, slightly disappointing. The wait goes on x

      As i said it's only been 2 weeks which really isn't long. I know it's an anxious time waiting i totally understand that. It really does depend on backlog in your area. If you put a mobile number down on the form then they'll text you once they have all the info they need. Once you have this it shouldn't be too long.

      They are going well thank you. I was having one lesson a week but because I go out every day with my parents there is nothing more to learn from my instructor so going to change to one a fortnight. Thank you for asking

    Hi Natalie, have you asked for a copy of the report yet? This should give you an idea of what the decision might be.
