Hi,
This makes no sense. I'm assuming that you haven't been told exactly what's going on. If your file has been returned from the health assessment providers then a paper based assessment has been completed, it wouldn't have been returned for any other reason and Covid19 wouldn't be a reason to return it without the report being written. I know the health assessment providers are mostly working from home.
My advice is to ring DWP again and ask if the report has been returned, if it has then request a copy to be sent to you.
If a decision hasn't been made by the time your award is due to end and your current award was made by DWP and not a Tribunal then your award will be extended. If your award was from a Tribunal then it won't be extended because DWP can't overrule a Tribunal award and it can't be extended.
