    @mark123, call them and ask for a copy of the assessment to be sent.
    that way you hopefully will get an indication of any points scored.

    Id call them to ask for a copy and when a decision is likely.

    It’s all very stressful I know. Seems we are always waiting on the dreaded brown envelope to arrive. It causes so much anxiety for everyone.

    If you still haven’t received the letter shortly then , when your wife is there, call back and ask for a copy of the assessment.

    Hopefully youl hear soon
