Currently playing the waiting game for my ESA re-assessment and just wondering how long approx. is it normal to wait from sending in your ESA50 to getting to the next step e.g. medical or decision etc. . At the moment I have been waiting just over 4 months from sending in the form without hearing anything (the DWP have received the ESA50 questionnaire).

I am hoping that it it was not sent to the DWP as it should have been returned to ATOS?

Four months is a long time, although we know of longer, I would contact ATOS and ask for an update.

Phone: 0800 2888 777 or 0113 230 9175

Email: customer-relations @ atoshealthcare.com (remove the spaces around the @).

The form went special delivery to ATOS, its me having a funny five minutes... ;) I have the DWP on the brain! :laugh:

I have asked for an update but there was no information to report when I telephoned hence why I was wondering if the timescale was normal. I know my GP has been contacted as I saw the info on the screen when I had a recent appointment... So that may well be the hold up...

Certainly, their having contacted your GP will slow the process down. If you have not contacted them for a couple of weeks then I would be tempted to try again.
