The dreaded Envelope was created by marymiated
Well my husband finally received the Limited capacity for work questionnaire...
we're glad... its better than sitting here worrying about it, though having started filling the form in its getting very depressing and mind numbing... 
Just like to say what a great site this is for information on benefits, its good to read of others experiences.
Just wondering if anyone knows how long it takes to hear back when you've sent your form in, either to let you know whether you have a medical or which group you go in to. Or does it, as I suspect, vary a lot?
Many thanks in advance.
Mia

Hi Mia, is your husband transfering from IB?
I'm in the ESA WRAG and it's 8 weeks tomorow since they received my form.
I think you are right to guess that it varies a lot though
Best wishes,
Rachel

I sent my ESA50 in on 25th October and am still waiting you hear. Just wish they would get in touch the stress of waiting is unbearable. I found this site of great help when completing the form which was an absolute nightmare.

Hi anniemae, I think I would be pulling my hair out by now if I were you, I can imagine what it must be like waiting after al this time...
As for the form, well, I don't think I have any need to comment, I'm sure everything I want to say about it has been said many times before .
