Hi,
The CAB helped me complete my form and I sent it recorded delivery (in prepaid envelope provided) in first week of last month.
I didn't expect a quick reply, but it's been 6 weeks now - does anyone have a rough idea how long to wait before hearing a reply or how long it takes for the DWP to review one of these?
Many thanks in advance for any help given.

Hi @dillon,
I have not found an average length of time but the DWP are checking approx 600,000 cases so I guess it is taking a while!
There is a thread on the Community about this which you may find helpful to read through. @Luv44 has posted about this and people seem to have waited between 3 and 8 weeks.
The ESA helpline number is 0800 169 0310.Joanne
