Hi Changes2023

As the DWP have told you they have the report - you can ring and ask for a copy. We normally say ring 48 hours after the assessment has taken place as that is the timeframe the assessors have to send their reports to the DWP.

Do you think it's also very strange to get a text message within 4 hours saying they already had the assessors report from them ?
Has anyone else had a text message that soon ?

Thank you for your reply

Hi Changes2023,

I've not had a text that soon, however, I have noticed on my report that my phone call was 9am till 10.40am and the report was finished by 12.11pm.

I think it's due to the pressures of getting so many claimants done as quickly as possible.

Although, things like this shouldn't be rushed - no wonder there's so many inaccuracies in the reports.

Regards, Chris.

Hello, yes I had a text the same afternoon as my assessment saying that the DWP had received the report, it was still a good seven weeks until I had a decision though.
