ESA Work Capability Assessment

I had my WCA at the end of February and I’ve yet to receive an outcome. Does anyone have an estimate of how long this may take?

My claim will end at the end of April if I’m not placed in the support group (LCWRA), so I’m very anxious to receive the outcome.

I would have thought 2/3 weeks after the assessment would be reasonable. However, the assessors report isn't the only piece of evidence the Decision Maker will have and then there may be questions.

Have you the stomach to survive the wait while ESA answer the phone?

@Bromptotoo Thank you. The Dr doing my WCA said that she doesn’t need much info from me because my GP provided so much information, as did my ESA50 form.

The call was only 20 minutes long, the Dr said she didn’t need any other details
from me.
