Hello

After a few years of my conditions getting worse, I decided to put in a change of conditions form. I was with the DWP but was transferred to Social Security Scotland.

I submitted the form and backup paperwork on 1 November last year. I've still not had anything from them.

Does anyone have an idea of how long they take? I think their target is 56 days but tend to take longer.

Thanks

Hi Pendle

Hopefully one of our members who has experience of this will be able to give you an idea on the current timescales.

It took eight months for me.I put in a change of circumstances in August 23. They decided to combine this with my review. I got a decision in mid April 24. They may have speeded up now.
